Dan Brown Returns to Prague in September to Unveil His Latest Thriller
Dan Brown is returning to the spotlight with his latest thriller, The Secret of All Secrets, set entirely in Prague. The internationally renowned author will present the novel in the Czech capital this September, although the exact date and venue remain undisclosed. What’s already confirmed, however, is that Netflix has secured the rights to adapt the book into a series, with Brown and showrunner Carlton Cuse (Lost, Jack Ryan) attached to the project. The novel, to be published simultaneously in English and Czech on September 9, follows the familiar protagonist, Professor Robert Langdon, who arrives in Prague for a lecture by noetics researcher Katherine Solomon. Their plans quickly unravel following a gruesome murder, a disappearance, and the resurfacing of ancient Prague legends that drive the plot into deeper mystery. According to publisher Argo, the book weaves Prague’s gothic landmarks, folklore, and esoteric history into a narrative full of puzzles, codes, and conspiracies. The Charles Bridge and Old Town Bridge Tower even feature prominently on the cover. This isn’t Brown’s first encounter with Prague. He has visited the city several times, including a 2021 performance at Municipal House, where the Czech National Symphony Orchestra, under Kryštof Marek, performed his Wild Symphony....
