Daniel Silva Gabriel Allon CD Collection: Prince of Fire, the Messenger, the Secret Servant by Daniel Silva

3.0

Art dealer and Israeli operative Gabriel Allon embarks on a mission to take down a terrorist who funded an attack on the Vatican. To do this he needs a Van Gogh painting and an American women to infiltrate "Jihad, Inc.", the network of the Saudi businessman who is a known associate of the target. They need this American, Sarah, to ID their target so they can take him out. This sets up quite an exciting story with a lot of spycraft. Silva also puts a lot of detail into his scenes, and some political grandstanding by the characters, which slows things down. I found myself often wishing he would get back to the story. So keep that in mind if you try this one out, especially if you like really fast paced books. The narrator did an excellent job, handling all the foreign accents and names with skill.
