Dès le début de la soirée, Langdon, comme les centaines d’autres invités, est fasciné par l’originalité de la cérémonie. Une évidence s’impose : la découverte de Kirsch va susciter une controverse bien plus profonde qu’il ne l’avait imaginé. Mais la soirée parfaitement orchestrée jusqu’alors va soudain virer au chaos. La découverte de Kirsch risque d’être perdue à jamais. Sous le choc, et en grand danger, Langdon est contraint de quitter précipitamment Bilbao. Dans sa fuite, il est accompagné de Ambra Vidal, la directrice du musée qui a préparé avec Kirsch cette soirée explosive. Tous deux s'envolent pour Barcelone, et se lancent dans une quête périlleuse pour retrouver un étrange mot de passe qui permettra de révéler au monde la découverte de Kirsch.

Plongeant dans les dédales sombres de l’Histoire et des religions, Robert Langdon et Ambra Vidal doivent échapper à un ennemi puissant qui semble envoyé par le Palais royal et prêt à tout pour réduire au silence Edmond Kirsch. Sur une piste jalonnée d’œuvres modernes et de symboles énigmatiques, Langdon et Ambra Vidal vont finir par découvrir les clés menant au secret de Kirsch… et à cette grande révélation qui, depuis des millénaires, échappe à la compréhension de l’homme.

A shocking scientific discovery.

A conspiracy of staggering brilliance.

A thriller unlike any you've ever read…

When a NASA satellite discovers an astonishingly rare object buried deep in the Arctic ice, the floundering space agency proclaims a much-needed victory—a victory with profound implications for NASA policy and the impending presidential election. To verify the authenticity of the find, the White House calls upon the skills of intelligence analyst Rachel Sexton. Accompanied by a team of experts, including the charismatic scholar Michael Tolland, Rachel travels to the Arctic and uncovers the unthinkable: evidence of scientific trickery—a bold deception that threatens to plunge the world into controversy. But before she can warn the President, Rachel and Michael are ambushed by a deadly team of assassins. Fleeing for their lives across a desolate and lethal landscape, their only hope for survival is to discover who is behind this masterful plot. The truth, they will learn, is the most shocking deception of all.

When the National Security Agency's invincible code-breaking machine encounters a mysterious code it cannot break, the agency calls in its head cryptographer, Susan Fletcher, a brilliant, beautiful mathematician. What she uncovers sends shock waves through the corridors of power. The NSA is being held hostage - not by guns or bombs, but by a code so complex that if released would cripple U.S. intelligence.

Caught in an accelerating tempest of secrecy and lies, Fletcher battles to save the agency she believes in. Betrayed on all sides, she finds herself fighting not only tor her country but tor her life, and in the end, for the life of the man she loves…

Robert Langdon, professore di simbologia ad Harvard, è in viaggio per Washington. È stato convocato d’urgenza dall’amico Peter Solomon, uomo potentissimo affiliato alla massoneria, nonché filantropo, scienziato e storico, per tenere una conferenza al Campidoglio sulle origini esoteriche della capitale americana. Ad attenderlo c’è però un inquietante fanatico che vuole servirsi di lui per svelare un segreto millenario. Langdon intuisce qual è la posta in gioco quando all’interno della Rotonda del Campidoglio viene ritrovato un agghiacciante messaggio: una mano mozzata col pollice e l’indice rivolti verso l’alto. L’anello istoriato con emblemi massonici all’anulare non lascia ombra di dubbio: è la mano destra di Solomon. Langdon scopre di avere solamente poche ore per ritrovare l’amico. Viene così proiettato in un labirinto di tunnel e oscuri templi, dove si perpetuano antichi riti iniziatici.

Fino al sorprendente finale. Un nuovo capitolo de "Il Codice da Vinci", un thriller dalla trama mozzafiato, che si snoda a ritmo incalzante in una selva di simboli occulti, codici enigmatici e luoghi misteriosi.

Un meteorite, sepolto sotto i ghiacci del circolo polare artico, è stato localizzato dalla Nasa e sembra contenga fossili di insetti che proverebbero una volta per tutte l'esistenza di vite extraterrestri.

La giovane Rachel Sexton e il professor Michael Tolland sono inviati sul posto insieme ad altri studiosi ma presto si rendono conto che si tratta di una truffa colossale, orchestrata ad arte. Ma da chi? E chi ha assoldato la banda di killer che li ha presi di mira, costringendoli a scappare e a rifugiarsi tra i banchi galleggianti di ghiaccio?
