From Daniel Silva, the #1 New York
Times–bestselling author, comes a modern masterpiece of
espionage, love, and betrayal
She was
his best-kept secret …
In an isolated village
in the mountains of Andalusia, a mysterious Frenchwoman
begins work on a dangerous memoir. It is the story of a man
she once loved in the Beirut of old, and a child taken from
her in treason's name. The woman is the keeper of the
Kremlin's most closely guarded secret. Long ago, the KGB
inserted a mole into the heart of the West—a mole who stands
on the doorstep of ultimate power.
Only one man can
unravel the conspiracy: Gabriel Allon, the legendary art
restorer and assassin who serves as the chief of Israel's
vaunted secret intelligence service. Gabriel has battled the
dark forces of the new Russia before, at great personal
cost. Now he and the Russians will engage in a final epic
showdown, with the fate of the postwar global order hanging
in the balance.
Gabriel is lured into the hunt for
the traitor after his most important asset inside Russian
intelligence is brutally assassinated while trying to defect
in Vienna. His quest for the truth will lead him backward in
time, to the twentieth century's greatest act of treason,
and, finally, to a spellbinding climax along the banks of
the Potomac River outside Washington that will leave readers
breathless.
Fast as a bullet, hauntingly beautiful,
and filled with stunning double-crosses and twists of plot,
The Other Woman is a tour de force that proves once
again that "of all those writing spy novels today, Daniel
Silva is quite simply the best" (Kansas City
Star).
