Originally hired by Israel on the order of Golda Meir to avenge the assassination of the Jewish athletic team at the Munich Olympics, Gabriel has been called upon subsequently by his government and then by those of Britain, Italy, France, and the United States either to mastermind or to assist in the operations against the assassins or master criminals of other countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat makes him more interesting than most top guns is his other career--restoring masterpieces of painting from either old age or criminal damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaken as a series, the fifteen Allon novels take the reader all over the world, including Putin's Russia. The series requires us to evaluate the role of violence and especially revenge in the world we and our political leaders are forced to engage in. They all take place in almost real time and are up-to-date or even prescient about the dangers we face.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Annabel Patterson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1543417825\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781543417821\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Xlibris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/29\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.34d","brand":"Annabel Patterson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46602743611647,"sku":"9781543417821","price":71.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f7d1ff6d-7bf1-4bb9-bf27-5126379b2899.jpg?v=1739695150","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-international-killer-thriller-annabel-patterson-9781543417821","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
