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.
