The Defector, by Daniel Silva: This, like all Silva's novels I've read, is an espionage/thriller that grabs you by the literary lapels and doesn't let go for an instant. It pulls you through page after thrilling page of intrigue and violent action and finally releases you, panting from your long but swift journey, on page 497. This novel is part of the popular Gabriel Alon series. It takes place in Russia, London and Switzerland. Warning: Do not start to read this at bedtime; you won't want to put it down in time to get some sleep.
