See moreFlorence: Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon awakes in a hospital bed with no recollection of where he is or how he got there. Nor can he explain the origin of the macabre object that is found hidden in his belongings. A threat to his life will propel him and a young doctor, Sienna Brooks, into a breakneck chase across the city.
The global bestseller of 2013 by one of the world's most popular writers
Inferno by Dan Brown is a thrilling spiral into a labyrinth of mythology, history, and intrigue. Bursting with action, this spellbinding novel captures the essence of enigmatic Florence, weaving a story that is as intellectually stimulating as it is captivating. A seamless blend of literary history, coded secrets, and breakneck adventure, Inferno embodies the epitome of modern, intelligent thriller writing.
Awaking in a Florence hospital with no memory of how he arrived, renowned Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is suddenly thrust into the centre of a perplexing mystery. An unidentified macabre object is found amongst his belongings, and his life is under an immediate threat. Joined by the astute and perceptive young doctor, Sienna Brooks, Langdon embarks on a desperate race against time through the narrow streets and historic landmarks of this picturesque city.
With their adversaries closing in and time running out, Langdon and Brooks must utilise Langdon's extensive knowledge of Florence's hidden passageways and long-concealed secrets. Their singular guide through this perilous journey is an obscure reference to Dante's Inferno, offering fragmented clues that promise salvation or doom. Each step pulls them deeper into a web of Renaissance art, symbols, and an ancient conspiracy that could very well have cataclysmic consequences for humanity.
With elaborate puzzles to unravel and sinister plots to escape, Langdon and Brooks uncover layers of history interwoven with a modern threat, all while the vivid backdrop of Florence springs to astonishing life. Dan Brown's masterful storytelling effortlessly captivates the reader, blending rich historical context with relentless suspense crafted to the very last page.
Now a major film starring Tom Hanks and Felicity Jones, Inferno transports you to pulsing heart of Europe, where every artefact, every painting, and every poem bears a hidden secret.
If you crave more high-stakes adventures and intellectual mysteries, don't miss Dan Brownβs latest Robert Langdon thriller, Origin, now available.
