Publisher's summary

Gabriel Allon had a simple but brutal job: he tracked down and eliminated Israel's terrorist enemies. But when his wife and son fell victim to the danger that accompanied him everywhere, Gabriel quit and devoted himself to the world of art restoration, an occupation that had previously been a cover for his secret assignments. Now Ari Shamron, the head of Israeli intelligence, needs Gabriel's particular kind of experience to thwart a Palestinian plot to destroy the peace negotiations in the Middle East. The architect of this plot, a Palestinian zealot named Tariq, is a lethal part of Gabriel's past, so as the two being an intercontinental game of hide-and-seek, with life and death as the prizes, the motives are as personal as they are political.

Great Narration good twists

I loves the narration and thought the story had a good plot with plenty of twists. I expected more colorful descriptions and has trouble visualizing some of the people and locations because there was not enough description

Thoroughly enjoyed the twists and turns.

Would you listen to The Kill Artist again? Why?

Normally, I would not, however, it was a complicated story with twists. I might be inclined to listen again to develop a greater appreciation of the story.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Yes, you never know what will happen next.

Which character – as performed by Jason Culp – was your favorite?

He did a good job differentiating the characters, giving each a personality.

1st rate listen.

Where does The Kill Artist rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Daniel Silva is great & story is one of his best. You might be able to guess what happens @ the end, but a great ride while it lasted. Story line is easy to follow & in the end, evil dies & the good prevail. Almost all of Silva''s books are good & can't go wrong to add to the lists of must read/listen for avid readers. A great spy story & interactions are easy to follow..

What did you like best about this story?

The evil die, the good prevail.

What three words best describe Jason Culp’s voice?

clear, flexible & suspensefull.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

If possible

Any additional comments?

One of many Silva's best.
