The Mark of the Assassin by Daniel Silva

This is one of his early books, so all the usual characters do not make it to this novel. It starts with a terrorist blowing an airplane out of the air as it leaves JFK. It was written in 1998, and he does a great job with explaining the terrorist networks. A very good book.

Just re-read this in 2018, and it predates Silva's introduction of Gabriel Allon. Michael Osbourne is a great protagonist who Silva chose to abandon after two books in favor of Allon. Who can argue with the author's success, but this is really a very good story.
