In this stunning follow-up to the global phenomenon The Da Vinci
Code, Dan Brown demonstrates once again why he is the world's most
popular thriller writer. The Lost Symbol is a masterstroke of
storytelling--a deadly race through a real-world labyrinth of codes,
secrets, and unseen truths... all under the watchful eye of Brown's
most terrifying villain to date. Set within the hidden chambers,
tunnels, and temples of Washington, D.C., The Lost Symbol accelerates
through a startling landscape toward an unthinkable finale.
As the story opens, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned
unexpectedly to deliver an evening lecture in the U.S. Capitol
Building. Within minutes of his arrival, however, the night takes
a bizarre turn. A disturbing object--artfully encoded with five
symbols--is discovered in the Capitol Building. Langdon recognizes
the object as an ancient invitation... one meant to usher its
recipient into a long-lost world of esoteric wisdom.
When Langdon's beloved mentor, Peter Solomon--a prominent Mason
and philanthropist--is brutally kidnapped, Langdon realizes his
only hope of saving Peter is to accept this mystical invitation
and follow wherever it leads him. Langdon is instantly plunged
into a clandestine world of Masonic secrets, hidden history, and
never-before-seen locations--all of which seem to be dragging him
toward a single, inconceivable truth.
As the world discovered in The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons,
Dan Brown's novels are brilliant tapestries of veiled histories,
arcane symbols, and enigmatic codes. In this new novel, he again
challenges readers with an intelligent, lightning-paced story
that offers surprises at every turn. The Lost Symbol is exactly
what Brown's fans have been waiting for... his most thrilling
novel yet.
