Synopsis "La Chica Nueva (in Spanish)"

En un exclusivo colegio privado suizo, el misterio envuelve la identidad de una niña de cabello negro que llega cada mañana acompañada por una escolta digna de un jefe de estado. Dicen que es hija de un empresario muy rico.

En realidad su padre es el todopoderoso Jalid bin Mohamed, el ahora denostado príncipe heredero de Arabia Saudí y otrora aclamado por la comunidad internacional por su promesa de emprender reformas religiosas y sociales. Jalid es ahora objeto de duras críticas por parte de todos los gobiernos debido a su implicación en el asesinato de un periodista disidente. Y cuando su única hija es secuestrada, recurre al único hombre capaz de encontrarla antes de que sea demasiado tarde.

Gabriel Allon, el legendario jefe del servicio de inteligencia israelí ha pasado gran parte de su vida persiguiendo a terroristas. Entre ellos, a numerosos yihadistas financiados por Arabia Saudí. El príncipe Jalid se ha comprometido a romper al fin el estrecho vínculo que une a su reino con el Islam radical. Solo por ese motivo, Gabriel le considera un colaborador valioso, pese a que no se fíe de él. Juntos forjarán una alianza precaria en una guerra secreta por el control de Oriente Próximo. La vida de una niña y el trono de Arabia Saudí están en juego. Tanto Allon como Jalid se han creado numerosos enemigos.

Y tienen mucho que perder.
