Description

From Daniel Silva, the internationally acclaimed number one New York Times best-selling author, comes a timely and explosive new thriller featuring art restorer and legendary spy Gabriel Allon.

Viktor Orlov had a longstanding appointment with death. Once Russia’s richest man, he now resides in splendid exile in London, where he has waged a tireless crusade against the authoritarian kleptocrats who have seized control of the Kremlin. His mansion in Chelsea’s exclusive Cheyne Walk is one of the most heavily protected private dwellings in London. 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....

The documents are contaminated with a deadly nerve agent. The Metropolitan Police determine that they were delivered to Orlov’s home by one of his employees, a prominent investigative reporter from the anti-Kremlin Moskovskaya Gazeta. And when the reporter slips from London hours after the killing, MI6 concludes she is a Moscow Center assassin who has cunningly penetrated Orlov’s formidable defenses.

But Gabriel Allon, who owes his very life to Viktor Orlov, believes his friends in British intelligence are dangerously mistaken. His desperate search for the truth will take him from London to Amsterdam and eventually to Geneva, where a private intelligence service controlled by a childhood friend of the Russian president is using KGB-style “active measures” to undermine the West from within. Known as the Haydn Group, the unit is plotting an unspeakable act of violence that will plunge an already divided America into chaos and leave Russia unchallenged. Only Gabriel Allon, with the help of a brilliant young woman employed by the world’s dirtiest bank, can stop it.

Elegant and sophisticated, provocative and daring, The Cellist explores one of the preeminent threats facing the West today - the corrupting influence of dirty money wielded by a revanchist and reckless Russia. It is at once a novel of hope and a stark warning about the fragile state of democracy. And it proves once again why Daniel Silva is regarded as his generation’s finest writer of suspense and international intrigue.

Lays down a line not to be crossed

I’m only writing a review because someone earlier reviewed this and said that Republicans wouldn’t appreciate this book, I think if you cherish democracy, you will. While the author has a perspective, it’s a reasoned and supported view.

It’s still a good story and lays bare the reality of foreign interference in democratic elections. Scary and perhaps a call to heed what is going on.

Primary story was pretty good

The first 9 hours was pretty good with the main story but after it concluded I think the writer should’ve stopped writing
The last hour or so was just politics

Another engrossing Allon story.

Well-written and well-read by a narrator new to me. I was particularly relieved by his women's voices-just softer not strident.

A decent book in the series

A decent book in the series. I must say I was completely unprepared for the ending which was great.

Disappointed

This book was more about propaganda. I don’t think Daniel even wrote it. I was really disappointed.

Terrible

After enjoying most books in the series this one was a complete disappointment. A disaster. It was not a spy novel. Kind of a manifesto of Silva’s progressive liberal views and denunciation of anyone who is moderate or even god forbid conservative. The whole Covid thing was so over done that it completely detracted from the story which was thin to begin with. I truly wish I could get my money back. One thing is for sure, I will not buy any more of his novels which is too bad after 10+ books in the series purchased to date. I vote with my $.

Very Disappointing

The Cellist did not feel like a Dan Silva book at all.
It is a disappointing story all around, after having read 14 of his books, the Cellist is probably the worst work he could have produced.

Disappointed

Compared to previous books, lazily written, short, no plot twists, no new characters. Very Sad.
