Description:

In Munich, a Jewish scholar is assassinated. In Venice, Mossad agent and art restorer Gabriel
Allon receives the news, puts down his brushes, and leaves immediately. And at the Vatican, the
new pope vows to uncover the truth about the church's response to the Holocaust-while a
powerful cardinal plots his next move.

Now, as Allon follows a trail of secrets and unthinkable deeds, the lives of millions are changed
forever-and the life of one man becomes expendable...

I enjoyed this nearly as much as the last book in the series but the subplot and resolution of the
story was far too similar to the previous installment. Because of this, the book lost a star in my
rating. Additionally, there has become a pattern in the stories of new love interests with each
subsequent book. After a while this will become tiresome. Here's to hoping that does not happen.
Early in the book we learn that underlying intrigue in the story will focus on secrets in the Vatican.
Ever since the Da Vinci Code, everybody and their dog has written a story dealing with the catholic
church and their lies/cover ups and secrets. For what its worth, this book was published one year
before the Dan Brown novel. That said, the involvement of the Catholic Church in the story is
much different that the recent novels and deal with real, historical issues between the Jews and
the Catholic Church. Here is an excellent
