His next novel The Da Vinci Code has been nominated as one of America‘s best-loved novels by
PBS‘s The Great American Read. This novel became renowned for its mind boggling riddles and
clues hidden in the works of Leonardo Da Vinci and supposedly connected to another secret society,
— Walt Disney the Priory of Sion. 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 Leonar-
do da Vinci—clues visible for all to see and yet ingeniously disguised by the painter. Even more star-
tling, 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.

The clandestine world of the Masons is featured in "The Lost Symbol," set within the hidden chambers
and tunnels in Washington D.C. 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.
