Into the book
'this…….'
As soon as I saw it, I could tell that the person inside was dead.
His eyes were lifeless and empty, and his face was frozen in utter horror.
Langdon never imagined he could feel both despair and relief at the sight of a corpse, but that's exactly what he felt.
--- p.200 From "Secrets in Secrets 1"

"Could this be a coincidental hallucination caused by hypoxia? Evidence of the soul leaving the body? A glimpse of what happens to us after death?"
The nature of death… …is still a mystery that every culture, every generation, every era longs to know.
But unlike the mysteries of life, the secret of death was one that everyone would eventually discover when they reached the end of their lives.
'The last moment of our lives... is the first moment we learn the truth.'
--- p.126 From "Secrets in Secrets 2"

Publisher's Review
Provocative questions about human potential and consciousness!
A thrilling story that crosses 21st-century cutting-edge science with 16th-century legends, and a surprising twist.


Dan Brown's unique charm of grafting specialized topics from the fields of science, religion, and art into thrilling and engaging stories at a popular level is fully demonstrated in "Secrets Within Secrets."
By concisely summarizing the core of complex concepts and incorporating them into episodes or unfolding them through dialogue between distinctive characters, the author guides readers into an intellectual world that is not difficult to understand.

In this novel, he focuses on noetic science, which explores 'human consciousness and potential'.
Catherine, the 'noetic scientist' who has maintained a tense relationship with Langdon in Dan Brown's series so far, is brought to the forefront and the field of noetics is explored in earnest.
While in previous installments of the series, Langdon has solved problems by applying his knowledge and skills in semiotics, his specialty, in this novel, Langdon finds himself in an unfamiliar situation where he must complete a mission without any special expertise.
He is a noetic, so he gradually acquires knowledge in unfamiliar fields while expanding his perspective on semiotics.
The way he encounters mysterious situations from the same perspective as the reader, experiences trial and error one by one, and approaches the truth of the incident and the essence of the concept creates a sense of human empathy and a freshness that is different from the previous Langdon.

In order to explore the profound subject of the human subconscious, the author chooses the specific symptom of 'epilepsy' as the subject of the novel.
This condition, also known as 'epilepsy', causes patients to experience seizures, which are convulsions that cause loss of consciousness.
Dan Brown presents this symptom, which is difficult to find in other narrative-based writers or works, not from a simple medical perspective, but as a clue to exploring the beauty and vulnerability of the human brain.
Through Catherine's mouth, the author tells a novel and surprising story about the shackles placed on the efforts toward evolution, to the point where the word "science" is rendered meaningless even in conventional science, and the mechanisms of human creativity, cognition, and consciousness.
The story, which will be equally as captivating to neuroscientists as it is to Robert Langdon, demonstrates the author's evolved capabilities as a master who has pursued a deep understanding and interest in humanity.

Renowned symbologist Robert Langdon faces his most agonizing and dizzying situation yet!
A massive whirlwind brought about by an unpublished manuscript that shatters conventional notions about human nature.


Robert Langdon, a renowned authority on semiotics, faces the most personal and mind-bending challenge he has ever faced.
He is asked to go to Prague with Catherine, a noetic scientist with whom he has maintained a long-standing relationship as a colleague and who recently developed a romantic relationship.
Catherine has been invited to speak at the Karlova University Lecture Series, one of the most prestigious in Europe, and she wants to travel with Langdon.
She was also invited to speak at a conference just as she was about to publish a groundbreaking book that would challenge centuries of conventional wisdom about the nature of human consciousness.
Langdon visits Prague with a light heart, intending to spend time with his lover and travel.
But he gets caught up in an unexpected and terrible incident and becomes UZSI.
He is thrown into a whirlpool of confusion as he is questioned by an inspector from the Czech Foreign Intelligence Service.
Even Catherine disappears along with her manuscript just before publication.
There is also trouble with the editor in charge of the publishing company preparing Catherine's book for publication in New York.


Langdon desperately searches for his lover's whereabouts, but finds himself entangled with officials at the American embassy in the Czech Republic who are hiding something, and a creepy creature straight out of Prague's medieval legends.
When ominous events begin to unfold among those connected to Catherine's manuscript, Langdon senses that some kind of conspiracy and organized organization is behind it.
Against a group of men and their secret projects intent on obscuring the truth, Langdon navigates a maze of codes and symbols ubiquitous in the worlds of science and legend.
What is the truth behind this secret project that completely overturns conventional notions about the human mind?
