A story about how a coder writes an unbreakable program for encryption, which makes an agency known as the NSA go all bonkers trying to get the algorithm so that they can break the encryption - all for the "greater good".
Now, the book is an easy read, and you may even like it. But , if you are technically inclined, keep away from it. Dan Brown should probably keep to art and history at which he excels. But, tech talk is something he is very green at, and does not really understand. So, its a thriller - with a maniacal assasin thrown in for good measure - and a bunch of tech jargon.
Not worth a read ... and not at all upto the standards of The Da Vinci Code or Angels and Demons.
