Bestselling author Daniel Silva (whose literary hero is Gabriel Allon, art restorer and Israeli Mossad agent) spoke at the Tattered Cover in Highlands Ranch, Colorado yesterday evening. I was already in Highlands Ranch Saturday afternoon (don't ask) and didn't want to have to drive all the way to civilization and then have to come back, so I stopped into the Landsdown Arms Bistro and Pub to wait for the event to start. As I sat there, I wondered why the Tattered Cover had Silva speaking at the Highlands Ranch store instead of at their Lower Downtown Denver location. And then it suddenly hit me ( I am especially good at analyzing things after my second imperial pint). Silva is good friends with actual Mossad agents. The Mossad must have some sort of operation going on in Highlands Ranch, and the Tattered Cover held the event there so his pals could attend. Of course! Even the bartender at the Landsdown Arms looked a little bit like agent Ziva David from the television show NCIS. The talk by Silva was very interesting and insightful, but I came away wondering all about the "hidden" Highland Ranch.
