Susan Fletcher, la criptógrafa estrella de la ultrasecreta Agencia de Seguridad Nacional (NSA) no puede dar crédito a sus oídos cuando su jefe, el subdirector de la Agencia, le informa de que han interceptado un código que ni siquiera la mayor supercomputadora conocida puede descifrar. La única pista para romper el letal código parece estar oculta en el cadáver de un hombre que ha fallecido en España, donde ha sido enviado David, el prometido de Susan. Mientras éste intenta hallar la clave y sobrevivir a la persecución de un metódico e implacable asesino a sueldo en las calles de Sevilla, Susan se enfrentará a su propio drama en las instalaciones de máxima seguridad de la NSA, durante una larga noche en la que la mentira y el asesinato acechan tras cada puerta.

This was a very entertaining read. I'm in the computer business since a long time, and this is an older story. All the references to the old computers (and old days) really talked to me and made me smile.

I think Mr Brown did a great job writing about all this while also creating an intriguing story.

The end was most surprising. The book is a prime candidate for anyone who loves big computers and puzzles. Sincerely.

This book made me yell more than once. Dan, my dear, crypto doesn't work that way. Really. Not. And I'm very much annoyed, because I still wanted to know what happens, because suspense, you can write. But it wouldn't have been that much harder for your book to be readable by people who have some basic (really, basic) notions of crypto. Very annoying. And all of this to yell the answer to the final enigma 15 pages before the people who are supposed to be living gods actually find it. The book's premise is that NSA can decrypt everything they can intercept, except that some guy claims that he found an unbreakable algorithm. Problem is, the technical elements of the story are so bad that the whole thing breaks down. Kind of a waste, because otherwise it would probably be quite a nice thriller. Grmbl.

What Da Vinci Code or Angels and Demons must feel like for history scholars. If you are even slightly familiar with the technological concepts in this book it is incredibly painful to read.

My favourite from Dan Brown's work. Perhaps because of my focus on computers and security :) I liked that he got more-less all things right without being too technical.

Again this is one of the books that made me like computers even more.
Read during my school days and this only added more fuel to my passion for computer networks and security.
