Origin

Robert Langdon, Harvard professor of symbology and religious iconography, arrives at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao to attend the unveiling of a discovery that 'will change the face of science forever'. The evening's host is his friend and former student, Edmond Kirsch, whose inventions and audacious predictions have made him a controversial figure around the world. But the guests are left reeling when the evening is blown apart before Kirsch's precious discovery can be revealed. With his life under threat, and an enemy who is one step ahead at every turn, Langdon flees to Barcelona with the museum's director, Ambra Vidal, on a perilous quest to uncover clues that will bring them face to face with a world-shaking truth that has remained buried - until now.
