Story
Helsinki, 1947. Finland teeters between the Soviet Union and the West. Everyone is being watched. A wrong look or a wrong word could end in catastrophe. Natalya Bobrova, from Russia, and Louise Koski, from the United States, are young wives of their country’s military attachés. When they meet at an embassy party, their husbands, Arnie and Mikhail, both world-class skiers, drunkenly challenge each other to a friendly—but secret—cross-country wilderness race.

If all you care about is pacing, go ahead. If you care about characters, don’t waste your time.

Depressing Book
Reviewed: 03-26-24
I haven’t read any of the author’s other books but they have good reviews.
The naivety of Louise was exasperating and I almost quit the book half way through. I wish I had as it was one of the most depressing books I have listened to or read in a long time.

Story
Israeli art restorer and occasional secret agent Gabriel Allon has a problem. He finds a prominent Swiss banker dead in front of his Raphael, and he's the prime suspect. After some diplomatic intervention, Allon is freed. However, the banker's daughter tells him that her father's French Impressionist paintings, acquired under dubious circumstances during WWII, have been stolen by the murderers. Once Allon knows about the wartime misdeeds, he is pursued by a shadowy killer known only as "the Englishman."

Read this book years ago and love all Daniel Silvia’s books. The narrator could not hold my attention and I stopped after 2 hours.

Worst Narration
Reviewed: 03-24-19
The narration was so irritating that I only listened to an hour and had to quit.
