Daniel Silva's #1 NYT Bestseller House of Spies

House of Spies is the 17th in Silva's Gabriel Allon series. (One does not have to read them in order). This is not only a #1 bestseller but is a first edition. Through the years, I have tried always to acquire first edition publications, particularly if they are, or I anticipate them to become bestsellers. And in treasuring my books, I keep them in excellent condition. But, back to House of Spies:The legendary Gabriel Allon is back and out for revenge - determined to hunt down the world's most dangerous terrorist, a shadowy Isis mastermind known only as Saladin. For anyone acquainted with this series, Silva keeps us on the edge of our seats (or couches) with true literary suspense. And he routinely takes all over the word, and does so in a fashion that we feel we are there, or at the very keast, wish we were. Loved this book. One can't go wron with Daniel Silva.
