Dan Brown Announces New Da Vinci Code Novel and Release Date
It has been eight years since Dan Brown published "Origin", the fifth novel in his best-selling Robert Langdon series. The novels about the Harvard symbologist, especially 2003's "The Da Vinci Code", have proven to be widely popular, selling over 120 million copies worldwide. Tom Hanks starred as Langdon in three movies based on the series and now the sixth novel has finally been announced Wednesday by the author himself. Appearing on "Good Morning America", Brown shared that the new book will be called "The Secret of Secrets" and will be published worldwide on September 9. The author explained why the new book has taken him so long to write. He said: 'I can now tell you that The Secret of Secrets is by far the most intricately plotted and ambitious book that I have ever written. And I happen to think that it's the fun. I cannot wait to share it with you on September 9.' "The Secret of Secrets" begins in Prague with Langdon planning to see a lecture by Katherine Solomon, a scientist and love interest of his. That is until her talk turns into a murder scene, and she disappears. According to Doubleday publishers: "As the plot expands into London and New York, Langdon desperately searches for Katherine... and for answers. 'In a thrilling race through the dual worlds of futuristic science and mystical lore, he uncovers a shocking truth about a secret project that will forever change the way we think about the human mind.' In a statement, Brown added: "I happen to believe we are on the cusp of a major revolution in the way we think about our brains and our relationships to each other,' he said. 'Cutting-edge science is now exploring advanced models of consciousness that seem poised to explain some of the mind's deepest mysteries. I chose this topic because I find it irresistibly compelling, and also because it is relevant to every single one of us.' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Dan Brown (@authordanbrown)

NEW YORK — Dan Brown' s next global, multi-tiered thriller finds protagonist Robert Langdon journeying from Prague to New York to London as he evades a would-be assassin and ponders the depths of human consciousness. Doubleday announced Wednesday that 'The Secret of Secrets,' his first Langdon novel since 'Origin' came out in 2017, will be published Sept. 9. Brown, best known for the blockbuster 'The Da Vinci Code,' is calling it his 'most intricately plotted and ambitious novel.' 'Writing it has been an unforgettable journey of discovery,' he said in a statement. Brown's new novel begins with Langdon, the Harvard symbologist, in Prague. According to Doubleday, he plans to see a lecture by noetic scientist and emerging love interest Katherine Solomon, only to have her talk become a murder scene and for Solomon to disappear.
