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. While working to solve 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 -- 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. In a breathless race through Paris, London, and beyond, Langdon and Neveu match wits with a faceless powerbroker 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.THE DA VINCI CODE heralds the arrival of a new breed of lightning-paced, intelligent thriller…utterly unpredictable right up to its stunning conclusion.From the Hardcover edition.

"Great book aside from one of the worst love story ever written"

"Hi! I’m currently reading 2 books: “When we were young and brave,” which takes place during WW2 and is about a British missionary school in China and the Japanese army who occupy the school. The other is “Big little lies,” which I like because it’s something I can just zone out to while reading. A group of parents behaving badly, gossiping, etc. Then a murder happens and the parents are still bad-mouthing/gossiping about each other. It’s ridiculous and I love it :) what about you? "
