The Secret Servant --- by --- Daniel Silva There’s a common thread to be found in much contemporary action writing. There are the good guys (in this case the filthy rich mega-billionaire captain of industry cum ambassador to the Court of Saint George. And then there are the dastardly, good for nothing, despicable, bent on destroying the rest of world in the name of Allah, hate-mongering Islamist terrorists. So there’s your basic leitmotif for this novel. Add one Gabriel Allon, agent for a secret intelligence organization, and you’ve got the ingredients for a story you can’t put down until you finish it. A good way to spend some down time.
