Very entertaining. Well layed out twists and turns.

My first Gabriel Allon book, New again.
It's hard to listen to other tales after you've heard the best.

A New andIntriguing Twist for an Allon Story

A slow start but a story that builds in intensity to a thrilling conclusion. The story is complex and inventive within the broad outlines of Allon's espionage. A half dozen old characters come back and are developed and woven into the story in many intriguing ways. This title and Fallen Angel are even better than all of the prior books I the series.

One of Silva's best...

... a great rebound after one of his weaker efforts. So very much enjoyed this story - fast moving, unpredictable, and altogether satisfying. And I couldn't be happier with the melodious sounds of George G. reading a great book like only the master can.

Best Gabriel Allon novel for me so far

Well-paced, understandable (if you read/listen to spy novels, you'll know they can easily become convoluted) plot, and believable characters. Allon was his intense but in-control self, Chiara a bit more involved in this one. A few new characters were introduced, and I hope to see them again in future books. Interesting and for the most part, unpredictable. As usual, George Guidall's narration was perfect. He can read his grocery list to me and I'd probably be riveted.
