Synopsis
Once Russia's richest man, he now wages a crusade against the Kremlin from his mansion in London protected by armed bodyguards. Yet somehow, on a rainy summer evening, in the midst of a global pandemic, Russia's vengeful president finally manages to cross Orlov's name off his kill list.
Before him was the receiver from his landline telephone, a half-drunk glass of red wine, and a stack of documents...
When a reporter connected to the investigation vanishes hours after the murder, M16 concludes she is a Moscow Center assassin. But Gabriel Allon believes his friends in British intelligence are dangerously mistaken. His search for the truth will take him to Switzerland, where a private intelligence service is plotting an act of violence that will plunge America into chaos. Only Allon, with the help of a brilliant young woman employed by the world's dirtiest bank, can stop it...
