A brutal murder, a missing masterpiece, and a mystery only Gabriel Allon can solve… Acclaimed author Daniel Silva returns with a highly anticipated thriller. Art restorer and legendary spy Gabriel Allon attends a reception in London for the return of a stolen Van Gogh self-portrait. However, when an old friend from the Devon and Cornwall Police requests his help with a perplexing murder case, he faces a formidable new enemy. The victim, Charlotte Blake, a renowned Oxford art history professor, was killed in a seaside village where Gabriel once lived under an alias.

Gabriel learns that Professor Blake was on the trail of a looted Picasso valued at over $100 million.
