Angels & Demons

The first adventure of Professor Robert Langdon begins when he is summoned to CERN to analyze a cryptic symbol branded on the chest of a murdered physicist. Langdon discovers the resurgence of the Illuminati, an ancient secret society seeking vengeance against the Catholic Church. Armed with a stolen canister of highly destructive antimatter hidden inside the Vatican, the Illuminati threaten to destroy the holy city during a papal conclave.
