An Evening With Daniel Silva in Conversation With Jamie Gangel on An Inside Job: A Novel

From New York Times bestselling novelist Daniel Silva comes a dazzling new tale of murder, greed, and corruption. Art restorer and legendary spy Gabriel Allon has been awarded a commission to restore one of the most important paintings in Venice, but when he discovers the body of a mysterious woman floating in the Venetian Lagoon, he finds himself in a desperate race to recover a lost masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci. The painting, a portrait of a beautiful young girl, has been gathering dust in a storeroom at the Vatican Museums for more than a century, misattributed and hidden beneath a worthless picture by an unknown artist. And because no one knows it’s there, no one notices when it disappears during a suspicious power outage. No one but the ruthless mobsters and moneymen behind the theft and the mysterious, faceless woman whom Gabriel found in a watery grave. The action moves at breakneck speed from the galleries and auction houses of London to an enclave of unimaginable wealth on the French Riviera – and, finally, to a shocking climax in St. Peter’s Square, where the life of a pope hangs in the balance. An elegant and stylish journey through the dark side of the art world and the Vatican’s murky finances, An Inside Job proves once again that Silva is the reigning master of international intrigue and suspense.
