RESSENYA DE L’APPLE BOOKS
Let’s get this out of the way first: We’re pretty sure Taylor Swift didn’t write this fun spy thriller, despite the social media rumours about pseudonymous author Elly Conway. But that doesn’t make the story any less entertaining. Argylle follows quick-thinking American drifter Aubrey Argylle, who’s hiding out in Thailand when he saves the crew of a downed DEA plane. Soon, the brilliant, multilingual misfit is recruited into an ultrasecret CIA plan to stop a Russian tech billionaire with nefarious aspirations. Filled with fast-paced set pieces and lively hints of romance, this pageturner never takes itself too seriously. Read it before you see the movie starring Henry Cavill as Argylle and Bryce Dallas Howard as…a reclusive spy novelist named Elly Conway.
