Daniel Silva delivers another spellbinding thriller-the seventeenth novel in his acclaimed Gabriel Allon series. "One of fiction's greatest spies," (Kirkus Reviews), Gabriel Allon returns for his seventeenth adventure in the new novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Daniel Silva. The Black Widow, the last book in the series, was a prescient and timely thriller-called "a sobering, insightful, and multifaceted look at the overwhelming complexities of the seemingly interminable war in the Middle East" (Booklist, starred review). It drew rave reviews from critics and readers. It also introduced a compelling new female spy, destined to make a return in the series. Fans and new readers alike will be drawn in once again by this masterful storyteller at the height of his writerly powers-"Silva is a true genius with his portrait of the Israeli assassin-art restorer facing new, real world complexities" (Politico)
