Daniel Silva
Seven days,One girl,No second chances,Madeline Hart is a rising star in Britainâ€™s governing party: beautiful, intelligent, driven by an impoverished childhood to succeed. But she is also a woman with a dark secret: she is the lover of Prime Minister Jonathan Lancaster. Somehow, her kidnappers have learned of the affair, and they intend to make the British leader pay dearly for his sins. Fearful of a scandal that will destroy his career, Lancaster decides to handle the matter privately rather than involve the British police. It is a risky gambit, not only for the prime minister but also for the operative who will conduct the search.,You have seven days, or the girl dies.,Enter Gabriel Allonâ€”master assassin, art restorer and spyâ€”who is no stranger to dangerous assignments or political intrigue. With the clock ticking, Gabriel embarks on a desperate attempt to bring Madeline home safely. His mission takes him from the criminal underworld of Marseilles to an isolated valley in the mountains of Provence to the stately if faded corridors of power in Londonâ€”and, finally, to a pulse-pounding climax in Moscow, a city of violence and spies where there is a long list of men who wish Gabriel dead.,From the novelâ€™s opening pages until the shocking ending when the true motives behind Madelineâ€™s disappearance are revealed, The English Girl will hold readers spellbound. It is a timely reminder that, in todayâ€™s world, money often matters more than ideology. And it proves once again why Daniel Silva has been called his generationâ€™s finest writer of suspense and foreign intrigue.
