The prequel to The DaVinci code. I never read the DaVinci code, but I did see the movie. My godmother has read both and believes this book is the better book, of the two. It was a very good book and I didn’t see the twist at the end, or even suspect it, till close to the end. The whole plot hinges on a murder that they are trying to solve and a plot everyone is trying to avert to blow up the vatican. I am not even going to try and put a synopsis, or anything like it, together. A lot of different elements get brought in here. There was a lot going on.
It is worth a read although it did take quite awhile to finish as it is long (10 hrs for me).
