DISCLAIMER*********I RECEIVED THIS ADVANCE COPY BECAUSE I ENTERED A CONTESTHowever, a free book is not a guarantee of a good review with someone who is brutally honest and passionate about books. That being said Ive read all of Daniel Silvas books and have enjoyed them all but some of them hold a special place in my heart because theyve touched a personal chord. This will most likely be one of them.The beginning is totally unexpected; I mean, you kill a princess the world loves? Really? Now thatSilva never disappoints, but this is one of his finest as he revisits the England-Northern Ireland Troubles in current day. He also has fairly blunt commentary on US-UK-Iran-Israeli-Russian geopolitics.
Well I have read some more (almost 100 pages in total) and I guess I've come to a decision about this book and series. I won't be finishing either.

My early thoughts were about complicated plots, complicated characters, and I was unsure of whether I was going to enjoy this novel or not. I was distracted by the fact that
First impression: Damn, the man sure knows how to write a dynamite first chapter!Last impression: Another outstanding book featuring my all-time favorite character, Israel's not-so-secret agent Gabriel Allon (the 15th in the series, I believe) - but it falls a wee bit short of 5 stars (for the record, I'd give it 4.5 if I could).That said, Daniel Silva may be the only writer on the planet who can make me want to read stories involving Hezbollah, al-Qaeda or the IRA. This book takes off where the
