Langdon is called to a Swiss research facility to inspect a symbol that was burned onto the chest of a murdered scientist.

Langdon is called to a Swiss research facility to inspect a symbol that was burned onto the chest of a murdered scientist. The book Angels and Demons starts out with a fact that talks about Antimatter and where it was first discovered. This little fact helped understand the book later on.
