Synopsis

Daniel Silva's novels immediately become New York Times best-sellers. A former television producer and journalist who has covered assignments from Washington to the Middle East, Silva fills The Marching Season with the political suspense that churns through present-day Northern Ireland. In 1998, as the Good Friday peace accords go into effect, world leaders hope for an end to the bloody Irish troubles. But terrorists are moving to shatter that fragile peace through a series of brutal assassinations. CIA officer Michael Osbourne's job is to stop October, their deadliest hit man. As Osbourne tracks the elusive October, he begins to realize that an even more powerful organization is using the terrorists. In this world of espionage and counter-espionage, no place is safe, and no detail too small to ignore. Frank Muller's narration swirls the currents of danger and deceit around each scene in Silva's compelling novel.

About Daniel Silva

Michigan born author, Daniel Silva has had a most interesting career before he made the decision to follow his dream of becoming a novelist. He left his pursuit of a master's degree in International Relations when he was offered a temporary position with United Press International in 1984 to help cover the Democratic National Convention in San Francisco. He joined UPI later that year as a full time correspondent. His job eventually took him to the Middle East, where he met his future wife, Jamie Gangel who was working as an NBC Today Show Iraq - Iran War Correspondent. They were married in late 1987. Silva returned to Washington, DC, where he accepted a position with CNN.

In 1995, Silva began his writing career in earnest with the instant best seller, The Unlikely Spy. All of his books have been on the New York Times best seller list, and have been published worldwide. His most successful series was about Israeli art restorer, spy, and assassin Gabriel Allon.

Currently, Silva lives with his wife, Jamie, and their children Nicholas and Lily. It is said that Silva frequently takes his children on research trips for his books.

Goodreads review by Scott on May 24, 2018

There is still today a very weird (and racist) thought among many people that terrorists are only brown-skinned Arabic or Middle-Eastern Muslims, and that white Christians are solely victimized horribly throughout the world (and in the United States especially) and never the victimizers. This, of co......more

I DON'T HIDE MY REVIEWS, BUT THEY DO CONTAIN SPOILERS. This is in Silva's line of Michael Osbourne books. Osbourne is a former CIA agent who has rejoined the service. He's done so because his father-in-law, a retired U.S. senator, has been named to an ambassador post to Ireland, and Osbourne senses d......more

Goodreads review by Mary on November 16, 2018

I am sometimes a voracious reader. Vacillate between Ta-Neishi Coates, Allende, Clinton, Comey and Orwell. The writers I cited are interesting and important but not always fun. Silva knows how to do espionage, thrillers, love interest; and boy it is fun! We do read to know "we are not alone," but so......more
