Gabriel Allon, art restorer and spy, is about to face the
greatest challenge of his life.
Allon is recovering from his grueling showdown with a
Palestinian master terrorist, when terrorism comes to find
him once again. An al-Qaeda suspect is killed in London,
and photographs are found on his computer - photographs
that lead Israeli intelligence to suspect that al-Qaeda is
planning one of its most audacious attacks ever, straight
at the heart of the Vatican.
Allon warns his old friend Monsignor Luigi Donati, the
pope's private secretary, and rushes to Rome to assist in
security, but what neither he nor Donati knows is that the
Vatican has been thoroughly penetrated. An extraordinary
enemy walks among them . . . and he's just getting started.
In the days and weeks to come, Allon and his colleagues
will find themselves in a deadly duel of wits against one
of the most dangerous men in the world - a hunt that will
take them across Europe to the Caribbean and back. But for
them, there may simply not be enough of anything: enough
time, enough facts, enough luck.
All Allon can do is set his trap - and hope that he is not
the one caught in it.
