The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown

This time all the mystery is around Washington D.C. but the symbols are still all about medieval masonry ala founding fathers. It doesn't matter how lala you think this all is, it is a page turner. Maybe it's because every chapter is about 3 pages or less and every one a cliffhanger. You think you have time for one more tiny chapter - and another - and another. And soon your meeting or job or dinner or sleep can just wait until you are done. I'm amazed that he hasn't been sued by the Masons - unless it's all true. Unless there is a key to all wisdom that will change the direction of human kind. Unless there are secret passageways that exist under the Library of Congress and wander beneath the city. Unless there is a some Egyptian connection beside the obvious to the Washington monument. Unless... Nah probably not. I loved the ride and I'd even take the tour - surely there is a tour...
