El código Da Vinci

Robert Langdon receives a call in the middle of the night: the curator of the Louvre Museum has been murdered under mysterious circumstances, and a perplexing coded message has been found next to his body. Delving deeper into the investigation, Langdon, an expert in symbology, discovers that the clues lead to the works of Leonardo da Vinci… and that they are in plain sight, hidden by the painter's ingenuity. Langdon joins forces with French cryptologist Sophie Neveu and discovers that the museum curator belonged to the Priory of Sion, a society that throughout the centuries has counted among its members such luminaries as Sir Isaac Newton, Botticelli, Victor Hugo, and Da Vinci himself, and that has been dedicated to keeping a startling historical truth secret. A thrilling blend of adventure, Vatican intrigue, symbology, and coded enigmas, this novel sparked extraordinary controversy by challenging some of the dogmas upon which the Catholic Church is founded. One of the most widely read novels of all time.
