I’ve seen this in many a bookshop’s Bestsellers pile over the past few months, so spotting it at the library I picked up a copy, having already bought a copy for Karen for her birthday a few months ago.
Although it’s clearly of the Da Vinci Code genre, it’s got different historical emphasis, much stronger female characters and a few drops of mysticism. Not to be taken too seriously, it’s an enjoyable read with the twin tales set in the 13th century and the 21st intertwining throughout the novel, and not surprisingly coming together at the end.
