Accompanying celebrated academic, Katherine Solomon, to a lecture she’s been invited to give in Prague, Robert Langdon’s world spirals out of control when she disappears without trace from their hotel room. Far from home and well out of his comfort zone, Langdon must pit his wits against forces unknown to recover the woman he loves. But Prague is an old and dangerous city, steeped in folklore and mystery. For over two thousand years, the tides of history have washed back and forth over it, leaving behind echoes of everything that has gone before.

Robert Langdon, Symbolforscher aus Harvard, begleitet seine Freundin Katherine Solomon nach Prag. Katherine bereitet die Veröffentlichung eines Buches vor, das bahnbrechende Entdeckungen über die wahre Natur des menschlichen Bewusstseins offenbart. Doch ein brutaler Mord stürzt die Reise in ein unvorhersehbares Chaos, und Katherine verschwindet plötzlich, ebenso ihr Manuskript.

Un meurtre sauvage va soudain précipiter leur séjour dans le chaos. Katherine disparaît, et son manuscrit est piraté sur le serveur de son éditeur. Langdon se retrouve pourchassé par une étrange créature mythologique et devient la cible d'une organisation dont le projet pourrait changer à jamais notre conception de l'esprit humain.

Within every religion there lurks an underground network controlling and manipulating those in power. Great knowledge was fostered and hidden by these groups.

Whether it was practical methods of survival such as navigation and measurement or inner psychological and spiritual wisdom, it would become the foundation for secret societies the world over.
