Maggiori informazioni sul libro

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES NO.1 BESTSELLER. 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 spy Gabriel Allon arrives in London for a reception celebrating the return of a stolen van Gogh self-portrait. However, he is drawn into a perplexing murder investigation when an old friend from the Devon and Cornwall Police seeks his assistance. The victim, Charlotte Blake, a renowned art history professor from Oxford, was killed in a seaside village where Gabriel once lived under an alias. Her murder suggests the work of a serial killer terrorizing the Cornish countryside, but inconsistencies arise, including a missing mobile phone and a mysterious three-letter cipher found in her study. Gabriel learns that Professor Blake was on the trail of a looted Picasso valued at over $100 million. He embarks on the quest for the painting with six Impressionist forgeries and an eclectic team of operatives, including a famous violinist, a master thief, and a lethal contract killer turned British spy. The thrilling narrative races from the cliffs of Cornwall to Corsica, culminating in a breathtaking climax at 10 Downing Street.
