Items related to Long Night In Paris
The clock has been set. And this could be a long night in the City of Lights.
When an Israeli tech entrepreneur disappears from Charles de Gauille airport with a woman in red, logic dictates youthful indiscretion. But Israel is on a state of high alert nonetheless. Colonel Zeev Abadi, the new head of Unit 8200's autonomous Special Section, who just happens to be in Paris, also just happens to have arrived on the same flight.
For Commissaire Legar of the Paris Police coincidences have their reasons, and most are suspect. When a second young Israeli is kidnapped soon after arriving on the same flight, this time at gunpoint from his hotel room, his suspicions are confirmed--and a diplomatic incident looms.
Back in Tel Aviv, Lieutenant Oriana Talmor, Abadi's deputy, is his only ally, applying her sharp wits to the race to identify the victims and the reasons behind their abduction. In Paris a covert Chinese commando team listens to the investigation unfurl and watches from the rooftops. While by the hour the morgue receives more bodies from the river and the city's arrondissements.

About the Author:
Dov Alfon, brought up in Paris and Tel Aviv, is a former intelligence officer of Unit 8200, the most secretive arm of the Israeli Defense Forces. He was Editor-in-Chief of Israel's most influential newspaper, Haaretz, and Chief Editor of the leading publishing house, Kinneret-Zmora. A Long Night in Paris, published in Israel to rave reviews, topped the bestseller charts for 24 weeks. This is his first work of fiction.
Review:
"breathlessly exciting debut"―Marcel Berlin, The Times
"Alfon takes over from John Le Carre and the old masters of the spy novel."―Guy Horowitz, Haaretz
"this impressive debut thriller is a timely addition to the canon of international thrillers."―Financial Times
"...a deeply enjoyable espionage thriller with plenty of juicy details about modern spycraft...a spy novel with lead characters who are genuinely likable."―The Daily Telegraph
"Fast-action, clever plotting and a Bond-esque lead character who drives the narrative forward at every turn... This high-octane spy action with a genuinely fascinating ability to take us behind-the-scenes of a modern intelligence service."―M.C. Scott
"fiendishly complicated yet pacey"―The Guardian
"I Can't remember any previous Israeli thriller so brilliant, lean, and sleek... A novel for our post-truth times, totally believable and impossible to put down."―Aharon Lapidot, Israel Hayom
"Alfon breaks the limit of previous generation thrillers and creates 21st century spy novel, sleek, highly political, funny, romantic, and unforgettable."―Talma Admon, Maariv
"Thriller of the Year... I'm in love with this duo of intelligence officers, they'll never let me down."―Galit Dahan-Carlibach, NRG
"Best novel of the year... John Le Carre and scores of Mossad agents can happily retire and leave room for Dov Aflon and his Unit 8200 wizards, who change the shape of espionage thrillers with enormous talent, depth, and intensity. A masterpiece."―Shay Golden, Makor Rishon
