Description

THE GREATEST CONSPIRACY OF THE PAST 2000 YEARS IS ABOUT TO UNRAVEL WHILE IN PARIS ON BUSINESS, HARVARD SYMBOLOGIST ROBERT LANGDON RECEIVES AN URGENT LATE-NIGHT PHONE CALL: THE ELDERLY CURATOR OF THE LOUVRE HAS BEEN MURDERED INSIDE THE MUSEUM.

NEAR THE BODY, POLICE HAVE FOUND A BAFFLING CIPHER. SOLVING THE ENIGMATIC RIDDLE, LANGDON IS STUNNED TO DISCOVER IT LEADS TO A TRAIL OF CLUES HIDDEN IN THE WORKS OF DA VINCI...

CLUES VISIBLE FOR ALL TO SEE... AND YET INGENIOUSLY DISGUISED BY THE PAINTER. LANGDON JOINS FORCES WITH A GIFTED FRENCH CRYPTOLOGIST, SOPHIE NEVEU, AND LEARNS THE LATE CURATOR WAS INVOLVED IN THE PRIORY OF SION-AN ACTUAL SECRET SOCIETY WHOSE MEMBERS INCLUDED SIR ISAAC NEWTON, BOTTICELLI, VICTOR HUGO, AND DA VINCI, AMONG OTHERS.

THE LOUVRE CURATOR HAS SACRIFICED HIS LIFE TO PROTECT THE PRIORY`S MOST SACRED TRUST: THE LOCATION OF A VASTLY IMPORTANT RELIGIOUS RELIC, HIDDEN FOR CENTURIES.

IN A BREATHLESS RACE THROUGH PARIS, LONDON, AND BEYOND, LANGDON AND NEVEU MATCH WITS WITH A FACELESS POWERBROKER WHO APPEARS TO WORK FOR OPUS DEI-A CLANDESTINE, VATICAN-SANCTIONED CATHOLIC SECT BELIEVED TO HAVE LONG PLOTTED TO SEIZE THE PRIORY`S SECRET.

UNLESS LANGDON AND NEVEU CAN DECIPHER THE LABYRINTHINE PUZZLE IN TIME, THE PRIORY`S SECRET-AND A STUNNING HISTORICAL TRUTH-WILL BE LOST FOREVER.

IN AN EXHILARATING BLEND OF RELENTLESS ADVENTURE, SCHOLARLY INTRIGUE, AND CUTTING WIT, SYMBOLOGIST ROBERT LANGDON (FIRST INTRODUCED IN DAN BROWN`S BESTSELLING ANGELS & DEMONS ) IS THE MOST ORIGINAL CHARACTER TO APPEAR IN YEARS.

THE DA VINCI CODE HERALDS THE ARRIVAL OF A NEW BREED OF LIGHTENING-PACED, INTELLIGENT THRILLER...

SURPRISING AT EVERY TWIST, ABSORBING AT EVERY TURN, AND IN THE END, UTTERLY UNPREDICTABLE...

RIGHT UP TO ITS ASTONISHING CONCLUSION.
