Daniel Silva

Daniel Silva’s eighteen bestselling thrillers featuring art restorer and Israeli spymaster Gabriel Allon share DNA with the works of classic espionage writers like Grahame Green, Eric Ambler and John Le Carre. His latest novel The Other Woman begins when a carefully planned operation involving a Russian courier goes fatally awry on the streets of Vienna.  In the aftermath of disaster, Allon begins to unravel a plot that intersects with the real-world case of an infamous spy, and spans generations.  Daniel Silva joined us in the podcast studio to talk about his long obsession with the story behind The Other Woman.
