#1 New York Times bestselling author Daniel Silva delivers another
stunning thriller in his action-packed tale of high stakes
international intrigue. #1 New York Times bestselling author Daniel
Silva is back with an electrifying new thriller. On the morning
after the Venice Preservation Society’s annual black-tie gala,
art restorer and legendary spy Gabriel Allon enters his favorite
coffee bar on the island of Murano to find General Cesare Ferrari,
the commander of the Art Squad, eagerly awaiting his arrival. The
Carabinieri have made a startling discovery in the Amalfi villa of
a murdered South African shipping tycoon—a secret vault
containing an empty frame and stretcher matching the dimensions of
the world’s most valuable missing painting. General Ferrari asks
Gabriel to quietly track down the artwork before the trail goes
cold. “Isn’t that your job?” “Finding stolen paintings?
Technically speaking, yes. But you’re much better at it than we
are.” The painting in question is The Concert by Johannes
Vermeer, one of thirteen works of art stolen from Boston’s
Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in 1990. With the help of a most
unlikely ally, a beautiful Danish computer hacker and professional
thief, Gabriel soon discovers that the painting has changed hands
as part of an illicit billion-dollar business deal involving a man
code-named the Collector, an energy executive with close ties to
the highest levels of Russian power. The missing masterpiece is the
lynchpin of a conspiracy that if successful, could plunge the world
into a conflict of apocalyptic proportions. To foil the plot,
Gabriel must carry out a daring heist of his own, with millions of
lives hanging in the balance.
