Synopsis

Determined to sever his ties with the Office, Gabriel Allon has retreated to the windswept cliffs of Cornwall with his beautiful Venetian-born wife, Chiara. But once again his seclusion is interrupted by a visitor from his tangled past: the endearingly eccentric London art dealer Julian Isherwood. As usual, Isherwood has a problem. And it is one only Gabriel can solve. In the ancient English city of Glastonbury, an art restorer has been brutally murdered and a long-lost portrait by Rembrandt mysteriously stolen. Despite his reluctance, Gabriel is persuaded to use his unique skills to search for the painting and those responsible for the crime. But as he painstakingly follows a trail of clues leading from Amsterdam to Buenos Aires and, finally, to a villa on the graceful shores of Lake Geneva, Gabriel discovers there are deadly secrets connected to the painting. And evil men behind them. Before he is done, Gabriel will once again be drawn into a world he thought he had left behind forev

From AudioFile:

The 21st century has its own James Bond: Israeli secret agent Gabriel Allon. Narrator Phil Gigante expertly brings Allon to life as he masterfully navigates a complex story. Gigante excels with his character portrayals, in particular his depiction of Allon, who has secluded himself on the Cornish coast as he attempts to retire from the world of espionage. But the appearance of someone from his past, a murder, and the theft of a Rembrandt propel him to follow a trail of clues that leads to deadly secrets. As the story races from England to the Netherlands, Argentina, and Switzerland, Gigante delivers credible characters and builds suspense. THE REMBRANDT AFFAIR is a smart and moving story. In Gigante's capable hands, listeners will be hooked. J.R.G. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
