When a man performs a dangerous, symbolic act on the mountain known as the Citadel, a Vatican-like city-state that towers above the city of Ruin in contemporary Turkey, a deadly chain of events is set in motion that could destroy the certainties of modern life.

Review of 'Sanctus' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Another recommendation from work (isn't this becoming a theme?) I enjoyed it for what it was, very Dan Brown-ish. Short, snappy chapters, quick and intense action. I especially liked the lack of america (we had aluminium with a u, boot rather than trunk, mobile rather than ell), a refreshing change of pace. Of course I do need to carry on with these to see where things go next!
