The Fallen Angel, the next book in Daniel Silva’s Gabriel Allon series, will be in bookstores everywhere on July 17th! And to thank you for your support, it’s my pleasure to give you this exclusive look at the full first chapter!

Pre-Order Now: Many of you have ordered your copy already, but for those who haven’t, there are still a very limited number of signed first editions for sale at Barnes & Noble and you can order an unsigned copy from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, your local independent bookstore, and wherever else books are sold.

I’ll be launching the book and my tour on the Today show on the morning of July 17th. Make sure to visit the events page to find out if I’ll be in your area this year. I’m looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible.
