The Da Vinci Code - Dan Brown (2003)

Consult nearby libraries Buy this book While in Paris on business, Harvard symbolologist Robert Langdon receives an urgent late-night phone call: the Louvre's elderly curator has been murdered inside the museum. Near the body, the police found a disconcerting figure. As he works to solve the enigmatic riddle, Langdon is surprised to discover that it leads to a trail of clues hidden in Da Vinci's works, clues visible for all to see, but cleverly disguised by the painter. Langdon joins forces with a talented French cryptologist, Sophie Neveu, and discovers that the late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion, a royal secret society whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Botticelli, Victor Hugo, and Da Vinci, among others. In a breathless race through Paris, London and beyond, Langdon and Neveu match wits with a powerful faceless man who seems to anticipate their every move. Unless Langdon and Neveu can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle in time, the Priory's ancient secret (and an explosive historical truth) will be lost forever.
