Críticas:

"This is thriller writing at the highest level, offering up a tight plot, believable characters, and an ending that even the most jaded of readers probably won't see coming."--Denver Post

"Fast-paced intrigue and provocative characters make this a fine addition to an outstanding series."--People Magazine, 4 stars

"Allon is a great political operative, but Silva is an even greater writer. That is what makes THE ENGLISH GIRL a must read."--HuffingtonPost.com

"Although Gabriel's adventures are set in the real world of greedy politicians and grabs for control of a diminishing supply of natural resources, 'Israel's avenging angel' has the superhuman abilities that make for a satisfying fantasy."--Columbus Dispatch

"Someone once said that their favorite books are ones that entertain and inform at the same time. The English Girl is one of those novels....A top-notch, old-fashioned East-meets-West, cloak-and-dagger thriller."--Bookreporter.com

"[Silva's] 13 Gabriel Allon novels have both entertained and informed tens of millions of readers about the realities of world in which we live more than any other writer over the past decade.... You will read the book in at most a couple of sittings."--The National Examiner

"Top-notch action."--Kirkus Reviews

Reseña del editor:

ONE GIRL. SEVEN DAYS. NO SECOND CHANCES.

Madeline Hart is a rising star in British government: beautiful, intelligent, driven to succeed by an impoverished childhood. But she also has a dark secret: she is the lover of Prime Minister Jonathan Lancaster. When she disappears on the island of Corsica, it’s clear her kidnappers know about the affair and intend to make the PM pay dearly for his sins. Fearful of a scandal that will destroy his career, Lancaster decides to handle the matter privately, and not involve the police.

Enter Gabriel Allon—assassin, art restorer, and spy—who must find Madeline within seven days before she is executed. With the clock ticking, Allon is thrust into a deadly game of shadows in which nothing is what it seems—and where the only thing more dangerous than his enemies is the truth. . . .
