Quinn is an elusive man of the shadows-”a whisper in a half-lit chapel, a loose thread at the hem of a discarded garment”-but fortunately Gabriel does not pursue him alone. Gabriel’s target is Eamon Quinn, a master bomb maker and mercenary of death who sells his services to the highest bidder. But when a bomb explodes aboard her holiday yacht, British intelligence turns to one man to track down her killer: legendary spy and assassin Gabriel Allon. She is an iconic member of the British Royal Family, beloved for her beauty and charitable works, resented by her former husband and his mother, the Queen of England. And one deck below, preparing an appetizer of tuna tartare, cucumber, and pineapple, was the man who was going to kill her. Stretched topless upon the foredeck, drink in hand, her flawless skin baking in the sun, was the most famous woman in the world.
