A Kirkus Best Book of the Year#1 NYT Bestseller#1 USA Bestseller#1 WSJ BestsellerFrom the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Black Widow comes the thrilling new summer blockbuster featuring legendary spy, assassin and art restorer Gabriel Allon.A heart-stopping tale of suspense, Daniel Silva’s runaway bestseller, The Black Widow, was one of 2016’s biggest novels. Now, in House of Spies, Gabriel Allon is back and out for revenge – determined to hunt down the world’s most dangerous terrorist, a shadowy ISIS mastermind known only as Saladin.  Four months after the deadliest attack on the American homeland since 9/11, terrorists leave a trail of carnage through London’s glittering West End. The attack is a brilliant feat of planning and secrecy, but with one loose thread. The thread leads Gabriel Allon and his team of operatives to the south of France and to the gilded doorstep of Jean-Luc Martel and Olivia Watson. A beautiful former British fashion model, Olivia pretends not to know that the true source of Martel’s enormous wealth is drugs. And Martel, likewise, turns a blind eye to the fact he is doing business with a man whose objective is the very destruction of the West. Together, under Gabriel’s skilled hand, they will become an unlikely pair of heroes in the global war on terror.Written in seductive and elegant prose, the story moves swiftly from the glamour of Saint-Tropez to the grit of Casablanca and, finally, to an electrifying climax that will leave readers breathless long after they turn the final page.  But House of Spies is more than just riveting entertainment; it is a dazzling tale of avarice and redemption, set against the backdrop of the great conflict of our times. And it proves once again why Daniel Silva is “quite simply the best” (Kansas City Star).

In his new thriller, House of Spies, New York Times bestselling author Daniel Silva once again recruits Gabriel Allon, art restorer, master spy and assassin, to prevent acts of terror by those who hate the West and Israel.Silva’s 20th novel features the indomitable Gabriel grappling with his nemesis Saladin, the Islamic State’s most celebrated and notorious terrorist and survivor from Silva’s previous acclaimed bestseller, The Black Widow. Saladin, whose resourcefulness knows no bounds, repeatedly eludes Gabriel and his minions while pursuing the nuclear material needed to build a dirty bomb. We can barely keep up with Gabriel and company as they pursue Saladin through the streets of London’s metropolitan West End, then along the opulent shores of St. Tropez in the south of France, and finally across the blistering desert sands of Morocco.But Gabriel and Saladin are not the only familiar faces in this newly published heart-pounding book. Early on, we discover that Gabriel has finally succeeded his irascible mentor, Ari Shomron, as the head of The Office (Mossad). Other favorites, like Chiara, Gabriel’s incredibly beautiful and intelligent wife, and Uzi Navot, his friend and one-time competitor, make cameo appearances. Nonetheless, it is the newly minted face of Saladin, Gabriel’s ruthless archenemy, who wreaks havoc and commands Gabriel’s undivided attention. One wonders if Saladin, the perpetual survivor, will continue to frustrate his chief adversary’s attempts to unmask and dispatch him in legendary Gabriel-like fashion. As is his custom, Silva keeps us dangling from a thread of suspense until the denouement in the final chapters.In “House of Spies,” Silva retains the artistry and skill of graphic description that we relish, as he frames the struggles of Gabriel and Saladin on a canvas of murder, massacre and mayhem. In telling his story, Silva leaves us with the impression that we are reading fact secreted behind a facade of fiction. It is a tribute to his extraordinary writing skills that this work reads as though it were extracted from the pages of an on-site historian. If Silva follows his usual schedule of adventures, we will have to wait patiently until the summer of 2018 for his next novel. For fans of Daniel Silva and Gabriel Allon, a year is a long time between books, but well worth the wait.
