Synopsis
A young investment banker named Edward Wozny becomes involved in a bizarre situation when he finds that a pair of clients--a fabulously wealthy duke and duchess--hire him to catalog their long-neglected library of rare books. The plot gradually zeroes in on one of those books: a rare and elusive medieval text that may or may not exist. Along with an obsessive graduate student named Margaret, Edward delves deeply into the library and its mysteries, and in the process finds strange and intriguing parallels with a computer game he is introduced to by a friend.

Industry Reviews
"Sophisticated, scholarly fun and games."
Kirkus (01/15/2004)

"CODEX takes its place on the shelf of self-referential, bibliophilic page turners like THE NAME OF THE ROSE, POSSESSION and A CASE OF CURIOSITIES, and it's as entertaining as any of them."
New York Times Book Review - Polly Shulman (03/21/2004)
