Angels And Demons

CERN Institute, Switzerland: a world-renowned scientist is found brutally murdered with a mysterious symbol seared onto his chest.

The Vatican, Rome: the College of Cardinals assembles to elect a new pope. Somewhere beneath them, an unstoppable bomb of terrifying power relentlessly counts down to oblivion.

In a breathtaking race against time, Harvard professor Robert Langdon must decipher a labyrinthine trail of ancient symbols if he is to defeat those responsible - the Illuminati, a secret brotherhood presumed extinct for nearly four hundred years, reborn to continue their deadly vendetta against their most hated enemy, the Catholic Church.

Origin, the spellbinding new Robert Langdon thriller from Dan Brown, is out now

Tony Black makes an amazing debut with this book, a dark and emotional piece of work ... [he] has managed in his first book to show a maturity in his writing that some authors chase for years. I'd put him up there with Rankin and Kernick and Billingham with just this first novel. I can't wait for more

Tony Black is already one of my favourite living crime writers

There's a stark immediacy to his prose...frenetically paced thriller

Running jokes and consciously ludicrous moments come thick and fast

The taut dialogue buzzes with snappy ventriloquism. Welsh is one of our most interesting writers on the minutiae of human consciousness

—— Sunday Telegraph

Essentially a stunning exploration of the darkest parts of the human psyche, one which will haunt the reader

There is no doubt that Crime is a page-turner
