House of Spies

Meer over het boek

A Kirkus Best Book of the Year and a #1 bestseller across multiple lists, this thrilling summer blockbuster features legendary spy, assassin, and art restorer Gabriel Allon. Following the heart-stopping events of his previous novel, Allon is back and seeking revenge against a dangerous ISIS mastermind known only as Saladin. Four months after the deadliest attack on the U.S. since 9/11, a trail of destruction leads through London’s West End, revealing a meticulously planned operation with one loose end. This thread takes Allon and his team to the south of France, where they encounter Jean-Luc Martel and Olivia Watson. Olivia, a stunning former British fashion model, feigns ignorance of Martel’s drug-related wealth, while Martel turns a blind eye to his dealings with a man intent on destroying the West. Under Allon’s guidance, they become unlikely heroes in the global war on terror. The narrative flows from the glamour of Saint-Tropez to the grit of Casablanca, culminating in an electrifying climax that lingers with readers. More than just riveting entertainment, this tale explores themes of avarice and redemption against the backdrop of contemporary conflict, reaffirming Daniel Silva's reputation as a master storyteller.
