The Da Vinci Code (Paperback )

The Da Vinci Code Book Description

About the Book :

An ingenious code hidden in the works of Leonardo da Vinci.

A desperate race through the cathedrals and castles of Europe.

An astonishing truth concealed for centuries . . . unveiled at last.

While in Paris, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is awakened by a phone call in the dead of the night. The elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered inside the museum, his body covered in baffling symbols. As Langdon and gifted French cryptologist Sophie Neveu sort through the bizarre riddles, they are stunned to discover a trail of clues hidden in the works of Leonardo da Vinci—clues visible for all to see and yet ingeniously disguised by the painter.

Even more startling, the late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion—a secret society whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Victor Hugo, and Da Vinci—and he guarded a breathtaking historical secret. Unless Langdon and Neveu can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle—while avoiding the faceless adversary who shadows their every move—the explosive, ancient truth will be lost forever.

Intelligent Thriller

“The Da Vinci Code” written by American author Dan Brown was first published in 2003 and was the best seller with over nine millions copies being sold. The story moves around Dr. Robert Langdon, Professor of Religious Symbology at Harvard University, to solve the murder of Jacques Saunière the curator of the Louvre Museum in Paris. Then starts the suspense, conspiracy and detective thriller. I have watched the movie as well as read the book. I found that the book is more interesting than the movie. It’s an amazing piece of work. “The Da Vinci Code” is fascinating and perfect for conspiracy and puzzle lovers. The characters are fictional but yet believable. This book is an intelligent thriller. You simply cannot put this book down. Thriller readers everywhere will soon realize Dan Brown is a master.

Definite read for the puzzle lovers.
