About this listen

Shortlisted for Audible's Listen of the Year, 2006.
Winner of the British Book Awards, Book of the Year, 2005.

A murder in the silent, late night halls of the Louvre reveals a sinister plot to uncover a secret that has been protected by a clandestine society since the days of Christ. The victim is a high-ranking agent of this ancient society who, in the moments before his death, manages to leave gruesome clues at the scene that only his cryptographer daughter and her symbologist friend can untangle. The duo becomes both suspects and detectives searching not only for the murderer, but also the stunning secret he was charged to protect.

Still holds up as one of the best suspensful fictions to date

Dan Brown captured lightning in a bottle when he wrote this book. The only thing that somehow improved it was the fantastic narrating who does a great job playing different characters very convincingly.

Brilliant

After watching the film many years ago I foolishly had not thought to read the book. I am very glad I finally have as the actual story is brilliant when not confused by the film interpretation. I will now go on to read Dan Brown's other titles.
As the saying goes ... one should never judge a book by it's movie.

Loved it! the narrator was brilliant

Enjoyed it tremendously. The narrator's charming ability to do a variety of accents across nationality, gender and age made listening to this audiobook a pleasure to listen to. The experience was a lot like listening to a captivating radio drama.

Exquisitely Thought Out

The hidden paths and symbology meld seamlessly in this book that is impossible to put down.
