great submitted by unknown on August 8, 2013, 5:17pm This is the 13th book in the Gabriel Allon series. Daniel Silva has made the character as exciting and fresh as ever
Siolva continues to deliver submitted by GJBarnett2 on August 8, 2013, 11:11pm Silva delivers another worthy installment in the saga of Gabriel Allon, an improbable world-class art restorer and Mossad agent, a little less of the former and more of the latter this time.
Best Gabriel Allon novel in a long time submitted by Jessamynrm on July 8, 2014, 7:33pm Daniel Silva's series focusing on the Mossad agent/art restorer Gabriel Allon has has a few installments that were more mediocre than masterful, but this book is the best in a long time. Silva--and Allon--are great when they focus less on the internal world of the characters (who can be a bit thin) and more on the intricacies of spy craft and international politics. The plot of this book involves a missing British public servant whose past is a sort of Cold War relic. What follows is a series of twists and turns as Allon and his team work to rescue her even though they don't quite know who she is.
