Book Description

August 18, 2008
Brad Meltzer's #1 New York Times bestseller featuring a two-hundred-year-old code devised by Thomas Jefferson and a present-day conspiracy at the highest level of power .


"Six minutes from now, one of us would be dead. None of us knew it was coming."

So says Wes Holloway, a young presidential aide, about the day he put Ron Boyle, the chief executive's oldest friend, into the president's limousine. By the trip's end, a crazed assassin would permanently disfigure Wes and kill Boyle. Now, eight years later, Boyle has been spotted alive. Trying to figure out what really happened takes Wes back into disturbing secrets buried in Freemason history, a decade-old presidential crossword puzzle, and a two-hundred-year-old code invented by Thomas Jefferson that conceals secrets worth dying for.

5.0 out of 5 stars Surprise from first book, December 29, 2009
This review is from: The Book of Fate (Paperback)
This was the first book I got my hands on from Brad Meltzer. This was given to me by my friend. He said that book was fine.
I fell in love with it in first pages. This book is great if you like mystery, secrets, action and stories about Freemasons. Brad will take you spinning in the mystery through out the book. It will keep you up at night time and it will be hard to put down. Really recomend it to people who like mysteries and Freemason stories. After this book I started to read more about Freemasons. Also I thing Meltzer has done a good job on research for this book.
Enjoy.

This review is from: The Book of Fate (Paperback)
Having been in the comic book industry I'm a longtime fan of Brad Meltzer. I'd read his comic books, but I came upon his novels more recently. A happy discovery since I'm hooked on stories that "unravel" history's mysteries. And Brad's novels -- like his television show -- challenge history as we know it. His adventurous mysteries are what you'd call page-turners. You won't put the book down until you reach the last page.

4.0 out of 5 stars Can't put down, December 22, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Book of Fate (Paperback)
This is a great book for people who like the Dan Brown type of fiction. Meltzer is a decent author who gets you to keep turning the pages. This was the second book of his that I read and, like the first, it completely pulled me into the story.
