From Publishers Weekly

Starred Review. Bestseller Silva's superlative seventh novel to feature Gabriel Allon, the legendary but wayward son of Israeli Intelligence, puts Silva squarely atop the spy thriller heap. When Solomon Rosner, a professor in Amsterdam who's also a secret Israeli asset, is assassinated for his strident reports and articles detailing the dangers of militant Islam within the Netherlands, Gabriel gets the job to clean out the professor's files. In Amsterdam, the Israeli agent and his old partner, Eli Lavon, unearth a plot that leads to the kidnapping by Islamic extremists of the daughter of the U.S. ambassador in London. While most intelligence agencies consider Gabriel persona non grata because of his unorthodox methods and the trail of bodies he leaves in his wake, he once again proves invaluable as he and his stalwart team hunt down some of Israel's—and the world's—most violent enemies. While you don't have to have read the earlier books in the series (The Messenger, etc.), knowing the history of the returning characters adds depth and color to the overall story. (July)

From AudioFile

In this installment of Daniel Silvas bestselling series featuring Gabriel Allon, art restorer and Israeli intelligence agent, the daughter of the American ambassador to England is kidnapped by terrorists. Gabriel arrives on the scene of the crime just too late to foil it, but hes on the case. Phil Gigante does a fine job with an international cast of characters, never leaving listeners in doubt about who is speaking in conversation. He also reads the narrative with clarity and verve. Admittedly, the plot is improbable, but thats not the narrators fault. This fine production will appeal to Silvas many fans.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Act Quickly, Regret in Leisure, But Save the Day in the Meantime, Aoû 10 2007
This review is from: The Secret Servant (Audio CD)
The Secret Servant lacks the smoothness and tradecraft of The Messenger, but is a fine suspenseful antiterrorist novel.

The story's main theme is that Europe will become the center of Islamic terrorism. Targets will focus inside the UK, and the Islamic friendly policies of countries like the Netherlands will make that task easier. Many elements of the story are loosely based on factual reports. Mr. Silva has a lot of fun pointing out the hypocrisy employed by the politicians as they seek help from any source in private while denying involvement in public.

As the book opens, Professor Solomon Rossner, a low-profile agent for the Israelis in the Netherlands, is killed. Gabriel Allon, an Israeli assassin whose cover is as an art restorer for Italian Old Masters, is asked to clean out Rossner's files so that his agents can be located and kept active while any secrets remain that way. Gabriel is surprised to be approached by Ibrahim Fawaz, who claims to be the source who foiled a terrorist attack on a passenger plane. Fawaz warns that a terrorist cell has recently left for an unnamed target. Fawaz warns, "Find them . . . Otherwise I'm afraid buildings are going to fall."

Gabriel quickly locates a trail that leads him to London. Once there, his warnings fail to avoid the kidnapping of the American ambassador's daughter, Elizabeth Halton, a talented surgeon. Frustrated to lose her, Allon stays on the trail of the terrorists.

The implications of the kidnapping begin to reverberate throughout the Middle East and Europe.

In Gabriel's personal life, he finds too little time to be with his beloved, Chiara, who worries that Gabriel may not survive.

At the same time, the Israelis want Gabriel to pursue a new direction. Will he be willing to make a change?

The book has several weaknesses that keep it from being perfectly satisfying. The Islamic terrorists are stereotyped so much that they don't come across as real people. The plot is also quite predictable in places. The mismatch between the terrorists and the Israelis provides not much challenge to anticipate.

The plot moves along quite nicely though, so you won't be sitting there bored. You just won't get to experience enough suspense.
