Deception Point

by Dan Brown

March 28, 2006 | Trade Paperback

A shocking scientific discovery. A conspiracy of staggering brilliance. A thriller unlike any you've ever read....

When a NASA satellite discovers an astonishingly rare object buried deep in the Arctic ice, the floundering space agency proclaims a much-needed victory -- a victory with profound implications for NASA policy and the impending presidential election. To verify the authenticity of the find, the White House calls upon the skills of intelligence analyst Rachel Sexton. Accompanied by a team of experts, including the charismatic scholar Michael Tolland, Rachel travels to the Arctic and uncovers the unthinkable: evidence of scientific trickery -- a bold deception that threatens to plunge the world into controversy. But before she can warn the president, Rachel and Michael are ambushed by a team of assassins. Fleeing for their lives across a desolate and lethal landscape, their only hope for survival is to discover who is behind this masterful plot. The truth, they will learn, is the most shocking deception of all.

    Can't stop reading!

    Dan Brown keeps surprising me. After reading The Da Vinci Code, Angels and Demons and The Lost Symbol, I was afraid this book wouldn't be as good without Robert Langdon as the protagonist. Was I ever wrong! I finished the book last night around 3 am because I couldn't go to bed before I knew how it ended. It starts a bit slow but it picks up around halfway through the book just like his other novels. I love how you learn stuff throughout the book without losing interest, the thrill is never ending! I'm now going to pick up the only book I haven't read by Dan Brown, Digital Fortress, and I can't wait for his next!! I recommend it to anyone who read and liked any of Dan Brown's novels.

    I found it a bit slow and too technical. The story does take off at about half way through the book. Personally, The Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demonds had more interesting story line. Do not know if I would recomend this book unless you are a NASA freak. I do not however regret reading it.
