(synopsis)
At mid night at Musee du Louvre, a curator Jack Souniere was murdered.
In fifteen minutes before dying, he remained dying messages on the floor around him.

Examining the messages, cryptographer Sophie Neveu, the grand daughter of Souniere, realized that the messages was head to her. Within the messages written the phrase "Meet Robert Langdon"!

To get some listening materials on fright to USA and Colombia, I became a premium listener of Audible.com, and downloaded this as one of first books.
#Though, I fell in sleep in the plane as soon as turning MP3 device on that I could not hear bit of the story….

*******
This is so major story titled "The Da Vinci Code".
On each end of the sections, there were big surprise and could not stop listening further.

In these day's mystery novels, it is considered that the victim remaining dying message is unnatural: why not write murderer's name directly, if you are injured and soon be dead!

The riddle given by the author is very sophisticated and artistic. I would like to read the related books as "Da Vinci Code Decoded" or "The truth behind the Da Vinci Code".
# To my research, the basic theory is not the original of Dan Brown, though.

********

This was my first experience to hear a novel only by listening, but narrator reads French character with French accent, English character with UK accent and every character has each impersonation, that at some point, it was easier to understand by listening than by reading.

Add to this, thanks to listening French accent and French line, I at last realized how to pronounce "rendezvous", which appeared several times in the other book I'm reading now.

Reading speed in natural (not so fast) and text is not so difficult.
