World-renowned Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned to a Swiss research facility to analyze a cryptic symbol seared into the chest of a murdered physicist. What he discovers is unimaginable: a deadly vendetta against the Catholic Church by a centuries-old underground organization—the llluminati. Desperate to save the Vatican from a powerful time bomb, Langdon joins forces in Rome with the beautiful and mysterious scientist Vittoria Vetra. Together they embark on a frantic hunt through sealed crypts, dangerous catacombs, deserted cathedrals, and the most secretive vault on earth...the long-forgotten llluminati lair.

The hype about Dan Brown is not unfounded. I loved every minute of this audiobook The book is well written and the pace of the storyline with its twists & turns kept me riveted throughout. As an avid reader of traditional hard copy books I was surprised how quickly I began to enjoy the full audiobook experience. Set in Italy with its beautiful architecture lends itself perfectly to the audiobook format where you easily become completely immersed in the storyline. One not to be missed!
