    Great writing, but follows the same formula - getting a little stale.
  

*by K***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 13, 2019*

I have been a fan of Daniel Silva since the beginning, since before Gabriel Allon showed up.  He has an intriguing, very appealing writing style that makes whatever he says interesting.  He can write about spies and action and adventure and superheroes, or he can write about nuclear physics or potato chips, and it all comes out in such way that you can’t put the book down.  With the Allon series he has developed characters of such depth that, after reading even a few of the books, you feel as if you know them as well as you know some of your own family.  The stories are always well thought out, and the plots are as modern as tomorrow.  Plus, each book is a history lesson, containing information that is based very much in reality.In this book, ‘The Black Widow’, the Office (Israel’s intelligence agency) finds itself in the middle of a hunt for Saladin, the new leader of ISIS, who is planning a series of terrorist strikes in America.  Gabriel and crew hook up with the French and the Jordanians, and somewhat reluctantly with the Americans, to locate and stop Saladin before he can complete his attacks.  They recruit a French national and train her to pose as a radicalized Muslim who wants to join ISIS and help with the war against the West.  The story follows her as she first infiltrates the organization, then receives training in Terror 101, and finally as she travels to America to participate in acts of terror in Washington, D.C.The story progresses as it usually does in an Allon book.  He becomes aware of a grave situation, he confers with his sources and confidants and works out a strategy to defeat the problem, he recruits an outsider to infiltrate the organization, he invests himself emotionally, his group does amazing things to learn as much as possible about the bad guys, and then the outsider is rescued at the last second.This formula has worked well, but after many Gabriel Allon missions, it is starting to get a little bit predictable.  What sets this book apart from the previous ones, and keeps it from getting lost in memory simply because it follows the formula, is its shocking departure from routine at the very end.  The ending is actually not predictable; it is disturbing and even frightening.  Because of the surprise ending, I give the book four stars instead of three.Why would I consider giving three stars to a well written book by one of the top three thriller writers in business today?  It is precisely because of the formula that has worked so well in the past.  There are several books in this series, and each is top notch.  But you can only use the same trick a certain amount of times.  Eventually the thing that worked in the past starts to seem a little stale.  In this book you can predict what is going to happen next, and you can almost quote some of the dialog word for word.  How many times have we read the following:  “Oded and Mordecai, a pair of all purpose field hands.”  Or “…his chin in his hand, head tilted to one side.”  Or something about Chiara’s “riotous hair” or something about Ari “igniting one of his Turkish cigarettes.”  If this were a standalone book, such things would not be noticed.  But for the reader who has been with the series since its inception, the repetitiveness is annoying.  So, three stars due to predictability and lack of creativeness in describing recurring characters.  But it earns a star back based on its departure from the formula by having an ending that is very much not predictable.  But don’t do that to us again.As I said, Daniel Silva is right at the top of the list of best thriller writers, but the pattern for his books is just a little shop-worn.  As a stand-alone book, ‘The Black Widow’ is great.  But for the faithful followers of Gabriel Allon and his band of merry spies, a little departure from the routine would be refreshing.  And please don’t do that by blowing up the rest of the country next time.

This time it’s a deep dive into the Caliphate and in the end it’s bound to be one of a series. International in scope, & violent intention and response, I was surprised never to read the name of a certain Adopted Corsican within these pages.But perhaps the man in question was here in disguise.
