Portrait of A Spy by Daniel Silva, Harper Collins, $32.99.
Gabriel Allon could have been acknowledged as the world’s greatest art restorer if that occupation hadn’t merely been a cover for his true talent.
This sensitive and loyal man, a lover of Renaissance art, is Israel’s top assassin. The only thing he can’t seem to do is retire.
This is the 11th Gabriel Allon book from author Daniel Silva. No matter how hard Allon tries to lead a quiet life among unsuspecting Cornish villagers, Silva drags him back into the dangerous, high-speed world of international espionage.
In Portrait of a Spy, terrorists are targeting European capitals, and it’s Allon’s bad luck to be the only person to spot the sweaty suicide bomber lumbering in a heavy overcoat through London’s Covent Garden.
Forget James Bond and Jason Bourne! Gabriel Allon is the trained killer you’d want on your side, he’s a cultured killer with a heart of gold.
