The English Assassin
ByPublisher Description
Spy turned art restorer Gabriel Allon finds himself accused of murder in this New York Times bestseller from Daniel Silva.
An Israeli spy by trade and art restorer by preference, Gabriel Allon arrives in Zurich to restore the work of an Old Master for a millionaire banker—and finds himself standing in blood and framed for the man’s murder.
While trying to clear his name, Allon is swept into a spiraling chain of events involving Nazi art theft, a decades-old suicide, and a dark and bloody trail of killings—some of them his own. The spy world Allon thought he had left behind has come back to haunt him. And he will have to fight for his life—against an assassin he himself helped train.

“The English Assassin by Daniel Silva is a masterclass in modern spy fiction. Silva weaves an intricate web of art theft, political intrigue, and deadly secrets, all centered around Gabriel Allon—a haunted yet brilliant Israeli intelligence operative. The pacing is relentless, the characters are richly developed, and the European settings add a cinematic depth to the story. What I love most is how Silva balances action with intelligence, crafting a thriller that’s as thought-provoking as it is pulse-pounding. If you’re into espionage with a touch of sophistication, this one delivers.”
