The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown (2003, Hardcover)

I love the "search for hidden clues" aspect of this book. This book takes history's "mystery" and gives it meaning. There is so much left to speculation in today's religions. It is refreshing to have a persective in Dan Brown that takes known facts and intermixes them with historical possibilities. It's a shame that certain members of society have to take great novels and make it seem that they "go against" certain "belief systems". I remember many books that have ruffled a few feathers. Any book that can take the public and shake 'em up a bit has my vote.
