A gripping bestseller... Brown has cracked the bestseller code * Guardian * Brown's novel adroitly blends the chase-stuffed thrillers of Robert Ludlum and the learned romps of Umberto Eco... For anyone who wants more brain food than thrillers normally provide * The Sunday Times * Exceedingly clever... Both fascinating and fun... A considerable achievement * The Washington Post * Blockbuster perfection... An exhilaratingly brainy thriller. Not since the advent of Harry Potter has an author so flagrantly delighted in leading readers on a breathless chase * The New York Times * Fascinating and absorbing... A great, riveting read. I loved this book -- Harlan Coben
