Ardent art restorer and sometimes spy Gabriel Allon is called out of retirement after the Vatican and the Pope are targeted in a fundamentalist Islamic attack. Allon must bring all of his cloak-and-dagger arts to bear upon the perpetrator, the extremist Saudi billionaire known as Zizi--a man who shares Allon`s fondness for the arts.
