I agree. I just read the first book by Daniel Silva: The Unlikely Spy (1996). And I found it very good. In time i will read them all 13 in his production.

A good Espionage author is a an important asset if one loves the genre.

Of all the great authors of the recent past, I like to place Len Deighton just one little step ahead of the great John Le Carré , especially with the first part of his production, where Harry Palmer shines in his dullness.
