The English girl by Daniel Silva

"The English girl" by Daniel Silva. This book is published by Harpercollins in 2013 and has 400 pages. This is Book 13 of Gabriel Allon series.        

Madeline works for a political party who's in power in England. She has a good career ahead and is destined to be an MP. She goes to Corsica, with her party co-workers, for a vacation and suddenly disappears. Kidnapped. The Prime Minister is target of blackmail. Gabriel Allon, the Israeli spy is pressed into action.

Who is the kidnapper? What are the demands? Does the conspiracy go deeper? What is the prophecy of lady from Corsica? Will it come true?

The story is divided into 3 sections. First is the story of kidnapping and rescue. Second is the story of a hostile operation in enemy territory and 3rd is the scandal and conclusion. Narration keeps you just about interested. It's neither great nor bad. 

Fallacies of Gabriel are evident still he is considered ultimate sleuth. He is also a good person at heart. He is liked by all and destined for a new responsibility by the end of the book. 

There is a big twist in this book. I could guess the twist, but could not guess why. This twist gives a new dimension to the world politics. 

I had read only one Gabriel Allon book earlier. This one is continuation of the series. 

Read if you have time or if you are following the series.
