The Two-Sentences-and-One-Word Review of The Unlikely Spy

The Unlikely Spy by Daniel Silva

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

With thrillers over the past twenty years becoming more simple and quick and, well, often somewhat ordinary, Daniel Silva's first book The Unlikely Spy (1996) stands out for its drama, action and pacing, finely-drawn characters, and deeply-crafted World War II settings.

I love Gabriel Allon and the later series that features him, but when I'm picking up a Daniel Silva book I've already read, I reach for this one every time.

Marvelous.
