Angels & Demons by Dan Brown

From the #1 "New York Times"-bestselling author of "The Da Vinci Code" comes the explosive thriller that started it all, now in a special movie tie-in edition. The prequel, set to release in May 2009, once again stars Tom Hanks as world-renowned Harvard symboligist Robert Langdon, who is summoned to a Swiss research facility to analyze a cryptic symbol seared into the chest of a murdered physicist.
