I took a break from it to read "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society" for my book club. I love that book!!!

Portrait of a Spy is a long book so I will probably still be reading it next week.
Notes from Amazon
Portrait of a Spy is Silva’s eleventh thriller to feature art restorer and master spy Gabriel Allon as he races from Great Britain to Washington to New York to the Middle East on the trail of a deadly and elusive terrorist network responsible for massacres in Paris, Copenhagen, and at London’s Covent Garden.
