Dan Brown Doesn’t Disappoint Secret of Secrets is classic Dan Brown. Fast paced, edge of your seat, drama! But, it is also full of thoughtful, paradigm changing information, all carefully researched. Bravo!

This is an amazing book. It masterfully weaves together the stories of three main historical characters - an artist (Leonardo da Vinci), a bishop (Francesco Salviati), and Lorenzo de' Medici. Melanson's descriptions are rich and seductive - capturing ...more

Great suspense story with incredible complexity. It is only at the very end that one figures things out. It’s a great way to read and learn French - reading in original language. The vocabulary is rich but sentences flow easily!
