Washington, D.C.: In der amerikanischen Hauptstadt liegt ein sorgsam gehütetes Geheimnis verborgen, und ein Mann ist bereit, dafür zu töten. Doch dazu benötigt er die Unterstützung eines Menschen, der ihm freiwillig niemals helfen würde: Robert Langdon, Harvard-Professor und Experte für die Entschlüsselung und Deutung mysteriöser Symbole. Nur ein finsterer Plan ermöglicht es, Robert Langdon in die Geschichte hineinzuziehen. Fortan jagt der Professor über die berühmten Schauplätze der Hauptstadt, doch die wahren Geheimnisse sind in dunklen Kammern, Tempeln und Tunneln verborgen. Orte, die vor ihm kaum jemand betreten hat. Und er jagt nicht nur - er wird selbst zum Gejagten. Denn das Rätsel, das nur er zu lösen vermag, ist für viele Kreise von größter Bedeutung - im Guten wie im Bösen. Zwölf Stunden bleiben Robert Langdon, um seine Aufgabe zu erfüllen. Danach wird die Welt, die wir kennen, eine andere sein

Dopo l'esordio da record ottenuto con l'uscita del 15 settembre negli States, è in arrivo in Italia il nuovo, attesissimo seguito di "Angeli e demoni" e Il Codice da Vinci. Ancora una volta il potagonista è professor Robert Langdon, che, a Washington, si troverà alle prese con i segreti della Massoneria, e dovrà decifrare ciò che di misterioso si nasconde dietro al Simbolo perduto. La posta in gioco è la vita di Peter Solomon, suo mentore e fratello di Katherine: se in dodici ore Langdon non riuscirà a decifrare l'enigma, Peter morirà. "Il simbolo perduto" è esattamente ciò che i fans di Brown aspettavano: un thriller mozzafiato, che vi trascinerà nei meandri della simbologia massonica fino a un incredibile e inaspettato finale. Il libro si apre con Robert Langdon, che accetta di tenere una conferenza a Whashington su richiesta di Peter Solomon. Dopo pochi minuti dal suo arrivo, scopre però che la conferenza era solo un pretesto: nella National Statuary Hall del palazzo del Campidoglio viene trovato uno strano oggetto con 5 simboli: in realtà si tratta della mano di Peter Solomon, tatuata e amputata proprio sopra alla cripta del Campidoglio e proprio sotto l'opera che raffigura George Washington, padre fondatore e massone, come divinità ascendente. Salomon capisce che si tratta di un invito rivolto a lui e sa che l'unico modo per salvare Peter è entrare nel mondo clandestino dei segreti massonici, affrontando storie nascoste e stanze segrete...
