A meeting with the curator of the Louvre is on Langdon's agenda, but the meeting never occurs. The curator is murdered and the killer has left behind a set of codes that Langdon must decipher. Langdon is caught up in this new adventure as a suspect in the curator's murder. He is forced to run and a collaboration with the French cryptologist is set up to decipher the new codes. The intrigue continues with the readers wondering if they will solve the codes in order to save their own lives and follow up on the ancient truth established in the original book. Brown's adaptation is written in easy to read language for the younger readers. The chapters are short to appeal to younger readers.

The Mysteries of the "Da Vinci Code" for a New Younger Audience Get Acquainted with Author Dan Brown Dan Brown is the author of the New York Times bestselling "The Da Vinci Code", the original book. He is excited to present an adaptation for readers from the age of 12 and up to introduce younger readers to the mysteries from the original book. There are differences between the two versions. Brown learned about the mysteries that are hidden in Da Vinci's painting of the Mona Lisa while studying art history at the University of Seville in Spain. He had the opportunity to visit the painting in the Louvre and was intrigued with the secrets before writing his original book. Brown stated in an interview from Random House that he wrote his adaptation for younger readers because some readers are not ready for the more mature events in the original book and he wanted to write a shorter version . "The YA adaption is an attempt to create for teens an age-appropriate edition by trimming the length, softening the violence, and clarifying some of the historical context." History is a definite part of both versions of "The Da Vinci Code". Brown states in his interview with Random house that "for him, the single most compelling aspect of history is that it is not always as accurate as we might believe." He enjoys investigating hidden historical documents to learn about different viewpoints. This concept is a large part of both versions of "The Da Vinci Code". He writes in the introduction to his adapted version that readers are free to believe or not to believe. He is proud of his treasure hunt that he created in his adaptation of "The Da Vinci Code" for the younger readers. "Real locations, real art, and actual secret documents" are all part of his clues in the treasure hunt. His favorite scene in his adapted version is the scene in which Langdon and Sophie escape from the Louvre. He states in his interview that the most difficult scene to write was the scene where "all the secrets are revealed". Brown is currently working on another thriller in which the character Langdon will appear.

IZDAVAČ bestselera Dana Browna "Da Vincijev kod", naljutio se jer je drugi autor spomenuo taj naslov u svojoj knjizi pa je slučaj završio na sudu. Novo publicističko djelo Darrella Bocka - "Breaking the Da Vinci Code" odgovor je na Brownov roman, koji predstavlja tajnu, alternativnu priču o kršćanstvu, u kojoj je Isus oženjen Marijom Magdalenom i s njom ima dijete. "Breaking the Da Vinci Code" je kritika takve pretpostavke. Izdavač iz Nashvillea Thomas Nelson Inc., branit će naslov nove knjige, koja je upravo u distribuciji, ovih dana na federalnom sudu. Katherine Trager, odvjetnica tvrtke Random House Inc., koja je izdala Brownovu knjigu, poslala je Thomasu Nelsonu pismo u kojem tvrdi da je naslov nove knjige "zbunjujuće sličan naslovu" knjige "The Da Vinci Code". "Tražimo da odmah izmijenite naslov knjige da ne bi došlo do zabune kod kupaca", piše u pismu od 6. veljače. Također traži primjerak rukopisa i datum puštanja u prodaju. Thomas Nelson odgovorio je tužbom pri federalnom sudu u Nashvilleu, tražeći od suca da izjavi kako izdavanje knjige "Breaking the Da Vinci Code" ne krši prava Random Housea, niti njihov trademark. Odvjetnik Thomasa Nelsona John R. Jacobson, u tužbi tvrdi da izdavač ima pravo prema prvom amandmanu američkog Ustava koristiti frazu Da Vinci u naslovu knjige i objaviti kritiku Brownove knjige. "Samo sam želio javno predstaviti kako stvari stoje", kaže Bock, znanstvenik na Teološkom fakultetu u Dallasu koji se bavi Novim zavjetom. "Ne da ja mislim kako Isus nije bio oženjen, nego gotovo nitko ne misli da je Isus bio oženjen." Odvjetnica Random Housea Trager rekla je kako nije vidjela žalbu Thomasa Nelsona pa je ne može komentirati.
