Category: Thriller

WHAT WAS LOST WILL BE FOUND...Washington DC: Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned at the last minute to deliver an evening lecture in the Capitol Building. Within moments of his arrival, however, a disturbing object - gruesomely encoded with five symbols - is discovered at the epicentre of the Rotunda. It is, he recognises, an ancient invitation, meant to beckon its recipient towards a long-lost world of hidden esoteric wisdom. When Langdon's revered mentor, Peter Solomon - philanthropist and prominent mason - is brutally kidnapped, Langdon realizes that his only hope of saving his friend's life is to accept this mysterious summons and follow wherever it leads him. Langdon finds himself quickly swept behind the facade of America's most historic city into the unseen chambers, temples and tunnels which exist there. All that was familiar is transformed into a shadowy, clandestine world of an artfully concealed past in which Masonic secrets and never-before-seen revelations seem to be leading him to a single impossible and inconceivable truth. A brilliantly composed tapestry of veiled histories, arcane icons and enigmatic codes, The Lost Symbol is an intelligent, lightning-paced thriller that offers surprises at every turn. For, as Robert Langdon will discover, there is nothing more extraordinary or shocking than the secret which hides in plain sight... ...Show more

Dance of Death by John Case

Category: Thriller

From the masterful creator of The Genesis Code and The Murder Artist: John Case's latest chilling exploration of terror and suspense. Jack Wilson has just been released from the Federal Correctional Institution Allenwood, a maximum security prison, in White Deer, Pennsylvania. Now that he's a free man, he is hell-bent on a 'return to Paradise'. By which he means the destruction of Western civilization - which he refers to as 'the great levelling'. A Native American by birth, though skeptical of so-called 'Indian culture', Wilson is a brilliant mathematician obsessed with the secret notebooks of Nicola Tesla - and the 'Ghost Dance' of his historical namesake, the Paiute Indian Jack Wilson. Tesla, a turn-of-the-century genius, claimed (and the KGB believed) that he had discovered a weapon of unparalleled destructiveness, one that used harmonic resonance to dismantle the molecular structure of any target. It is Wilson's belief that Western civilization is a fragile enterprise, so technically interdependent upon its various components, that a carefully targeted attack upon its infrastructure might well bring the whole thing down. And that was also the idea of the first Jack Wilson, the Paiute Indian contemporary of Tesla whose vision of the Ghost Dance imagined a kind of Indian Rapture brought about by a great shaking of the earth - after which the white civilization would be gone. In our time, Jack Wilson sets that diabolical scheme in motion... ...Show more
