The Lost Symbol
#1 WORLDWIDE BESTSELLER - An intelligent, lightning-paced thriller set within the hidden chambers, tunnels, and temples of Washington, D.C., with surprises at every turn. "Impossible to put down.... Another mind-blowing Robert Langdon story." --The New York Times Famed Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon answers an unexpected summons to appear at the U.S. Capitol Building. His plans are interrupted when a disturbing object--artfully encoded with five symbols--is discovered in the building. Langdon recognizes in the find an ancient invitation into a lost world of esoteric, potentially dangerous wisdom. When his mentor Peter Solomon--a long-standing Mason and beloved philanthropist--is kidnapped, Langdon realizes that the only way to save Solomon is to accept the mystical invitation and plunge headlong into a clandestine world of Masonic secrets, hidden history, and one inconceivable truth ... all under the watchful eye of Dan Brown's most terrifying villain to date.

Praise for this book
"Impossible to put down.... Another mind-blowing Robert Langdon story." --The New York Times "Robert Langdon remains a terrific hero, a bookish intellectual who's cool in a crisis and quick on his feet.... The codes are intriguing, the settings present often-seen locales in a fresh light, and Brown keeps the pages turning." --Entertainment Weekly "Thrilling in the extreme, a definite page-flipper." --New York Daily News "[The] Indiana Jones of intellectuals, Robert Langdon, rides again.... Revelations connecting faith and science...add dimension to this page-turner's thrills." --People "Call it Brownian motion: a comet-tail ride of beautifully spaced reveals and a socko unveiling of the killer's true identity." --Washington Post "The wait is over. The Lost Symbol is here--and you don't have to be a Freemason to enjoy it.... Thrilling and entertaining, like the experience on a roller coaster." --Los Angeles Times
