Origin by Dan Brown
In the middle of Kirsch's presentation regarding a breakthrough that will change the way we look at humanity's past and future, he's killed. And he, of course, is the only one who can release the rest of the presentation, so Langdon and the beautiful woman, this time around it's museum director Ambra Vidal, have to follow clues to find out how to let the public know about Kirsch's discovery. They are also helped by Kirsch's amazingly advanced AI, Winston.
This time the art is modern, which is a world Langdon isn't quite as comfortable with, but did make for an interesting change of pace. And I loved the tour of Spain. As always, Brown touches on history and religion,which is part of what I enjoy about his thrillers. His writing may be a bit repetitive and sometimes gives us information that we should probably already know, I enjoy them. There's nothing wrong with something that's just entertaining.
I do tend to listen to...
