From #1 New York Situations bestselling author Daniel Silva, this summer’s hottest thriller.

Now you see her. Now you don’t. THE NEW Gal. A fresh thriller of deception, betrayal, and vengeance.

She was covered from head to toe in expensive wool and plaid, the sort of stuff one saw on the Burberry boutique in Harrods. She carried a leather bookbag rather than about THE BRAND NEW Female: A Novel nylon backpack. Her patent leather ballet slippers were glossy and shiny. She was proper, the new girl, modest. But there is something else about her …

At an exclusive private college in Switzerland, mystery surrounds the identity of the beautiful raven-haired female who arrives every morning in a motorcade fit for any head of condition. She is reported to be the little girl of a wealthy international businessman. In truth, her father is Khalid bin Mohammed, the much-maligned crown prince of Saudi Arabia. Once celebrated for his daring public and religious reforms, he’s right now reviled for his part in the murder of the dissident journalist. So when his just child is usually brutally kidnapped, he turns to the one guy he can trust to find her before it is too late.

What’s done can’t be undone …

Gabriel Allon, the legendary chief of Israeli intelligence, has spent most of his existence fighting terrorists, including the murderous jihadists financed by Saudi Arabia. Prince Khalid-or KBM, as he’s known-has pledged to finally break the bond between the Kingdom and radical Islam. For that reason alone, Gabriel relation him as a valuable if flawed partner. Collectively they’ll become improbable allies in a deadly secret battle for control of the Middle East. The life of a child, as well as the throne of Saudi Arabia, suspend in the balance. Both men possess made their talk about of enemies. And both possess everything to reduce.

Filled up with dark humor, breathtaking twists of plot, and an memorable cast of characters, THE BRAND NEW Girl is normally both a thrilling, page-turning tale of entertainment and a sophisticated study of politics alliances and great-power rivalries within a dangerous world. And it is once again evidence that Gabriel Allon can be “one of fiction’s greatest spies” (Kirkus) and Daniel Silva is “quite simply the best” (Kansas City Star) writer of foreign intrigue and suspense at work today.
