The Missing Crypt

I went here and selected Mounties and Ottawa and got this:

A long-forgotten labyrinth deep beneath the streets of Ottawa.
A ruthless cult determined to protect it.
A white-knuckled race to uncover the Mounties' darkest secret
.

The Missing Crypt

When world-famous Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned to the Parliament Buildings to analyze a mysterious geometric form—imprinted on a gold ring lying next to the disfigured form of the head docent—he discovers evidence of the unthinkable: the resurgence of the ancient cult of the Truminati, a secret branch of the Mounties that has surfaced from the shadows to carry out its legendary vendetta against its mortal enemy, the Vatican.

Langdon's worst fears are confirmed when a messenger from the Truminati appears at the National Gallery of Canada to deliver a grim ultimatum: Deposit $1 billion in the Mounties' off-shore bank accounts or the exclusive clothier of the Swiss Guards will be bankrupted. With the deadline fast approaching, Langdon joins forces with the lupine and charming daughter of the murdered docent in a desperate bid to crack the code that will reveal the cult's secret plan.

Embarking on a frantic hunt, Langdon and his companion follow a 1000-year-old trail through Ottawa's most historic libraries and exalted churches, pursued by a near-sighted assassin the cult has sent to thwart them. What they discover threatens to expose a conspiracy that goes all the way back to Sam Steele and the very founding of the Mounties.


A thrilling novel about the Mounties and Ottawa! Pass the maple syrup, I can't wait to see what happens next!

    Today I am busy deciding which small country to buy with my movie rights windfall for The Sacred Enigma.

    Oh, and the yacht. Not everybody can afford a yacht. Yet.
