The Rembrandt Affair

Gabriel Allon, Book 10

De: Daniel Silva

Narrado por: Phil Gigante

Determined to sever his ties with the Office, Gabriel Allon has retreated to the windswept cliffs of Cornwall with his beautiful Venetian-born wife, Chiara. But once again his seclusion is interrupted by a visitor from his tangled past: the endearingly eccentric London art dealer Julian Isherwood. As usual, Isherwood has a problem. And it is one only Gabriel can solve.

In the ancient English city of Glastonbury, an art restorer has been brutally murdered and a long-lost portrait by Rembrandt mysteriously stolen. Despite his reluctance, Gabriel is persuaded to use his unique skills to search for the painting and those responsible for the crime. But as he painstakingly follows a trail of clues leading from Amsterdam to Buenos Aires and, finally, to a villa on the graceful shores of Lake Geneva, Gabriel discovers there are deadly secrets connected to the painting. And evil men behind them.

Before he is done, Gabriel will once again be drawn into a world he thought he had left behind forever, and will come face-to-face with a remarkable cast of characters: a glamorous London journalist who is determined to undo the worst mistake of her career, an elusive master art thief who is burdened by a conscience, and a powerful Swiss billionaire who is known for his good deeds but may just be behind one of the greatest threats facing the world.

Filled with remarkable twists and turns of plot, and told with seductive prose, The Rembrandt Affair is more than just summer entertainment of the highest order. It is a timely reminder that there are men in the world who will do anything for money.

Amazing

Amazing. Simply amazing. Silva has done it again. Fine writing weaving the famed fictional Israeli agent, Gabriel Allon, into current events. I love this series.

Another Great Thriller!

I have become an avid fan of Silva's novels. . . particularly enjoying the ones that feature Gabriel Alon. . . terrific pacing and plot, great characters and best of all, exotic locales where all the action occurs. This is another of Silva's really good stories. Am already anxious to start the next one in the series.

Fantastically written and read

This is the second time I have been spellbound by this story. When it first came out I read it. This time I listened to the book. The story was as entertaining even more the second time.

another great read

as always Allon triumphs with many twists and turns - you never know how is is going to get out of the mess he' s in

The Rembrandt Affair

It was suspenseful and exciting. I really thought there was a nother Rembrandt out there the way this read. I would recommend it.

Another winner

Loved Silva's story telling brilliance and wonderful narration, as usual. His characters pull the reader in and don't let go until the very end.

This was my first book by Daniel Silva.

I really enjoyed it. I liked the spy intrigue plus the history behind this story. Definitely worth reading.

5 Star

Unless your Frank Rich the drama critic of the NYT looking to nitpick on small insignificant negatives. This is a great audiobook than any true Gabriel Alon fan will enjoy.

Excellent

Daniel Silva is getting better and better with each book. I’m excited to start the next.

Maybe I'm Spoiled

This story was harder to follow and me less into the characters than his other books did.
