The Da Vinci Code

After a murder in a Paris museum, cryptic clues hidden in famous paintings draw a symbology expert and a cryptologist into a dangerous search for a religious secret. As they follow the trail across Europe, they must evade authorities and a secret society determined to keep the mystery buried.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like clue-driven conspiracy thrillers with religious mysteries and European chases, but it may disappoint if you prefer brisk pacing, subtle dialogue, or tightly grounded stories; Not for you if slow exposition frustrates you.
