Richard Merrick

Like many of the comments written about this book. I too, always eagerly await the next Allon Book. As I started the Cellist, I thought yess, we are back to the real Allon , all the characters are here again. The Order was not my idea of a good espionage story. With that in mind I enjoyed the first initial story line of The Cellist. Then, the politics started to become evident. I finished the book. But, Mr. Silva, as one other comment made, stick to the real dark world of espionage. Trash the politics. Lately we have seen and heard enough of them.
