Portrait of an Unknown Woman

In Daniel Silva's latest masterwork, legendary spy and art restorer Gabriel Allon has finally sought solace from his perilous past, settling into a quiet life in Venice with his wife and young twins. His peace is shattered when the enigmatic London art dealer, Julian Isherwood, entreats him to investigate a newly rediscovered, centuries-old painting—a portrait attributed to Sir Anthony van Dyck, now commanding an exorbitant price. Allon quickly discerns the masterpiece is a cunning forgery, drawing him into a labyrinthine world where nothing is as it seems. To expose the mastermind behind this multi-billion-dollar art fraud, Gabriel must undertake one of the most elaborate deceptions of his career, transforming himself into the very image of the elusive art forger he seeks. This high-stakes game of cat and mouse forces Allon to confront his own identity and leverage his unique skills in a battle against a shadowy figure at the pinnacle of the art world, risking everything to uncover the truth.
