When the National Security Agency’s invincible code-breaking machine encounters a mysterious code it cannot break, the agency calls its head cryptographer, Susan Fletcher, a brilliant, beautiful mathematician. What she uncovers sends shock waves through the corridors of power. The NSA is being held hostage…not by guns or bombs but by a code so complex that if released would cripple U.S. intelligence. Caught in an accelerating tempest of secrecy and lies, Fletcher battles to save the agency she believes in. Betrayed on all sides, she finds herself fighting not only for her country but for her life. It is a battle for survival―a crucial bid to destroy a creation of inconceivable genius that threatens to obliterate the balance of world power…for all time. This edition of the book is the deluxe, tall rack mass market paperback. Review: There Are a Couple of Flaws, but I Loved the Story - I read all of Dan Brown's Robert Langdon books and I really liked them, so I finally decided to get the other two (Digital Fortress and Deception Point) and see what I would think of them. Well, I can honestly say I enjoyed Digital Fortress much more than the Langdon series. The story starts with Susan Fletcher waking up to find out her fiance, David Becker, is gone somewhere for work, spoiling her plans for the weekend. And then she is also called in to work. Susan works for the NSA, in the crypto department, where their big computer, TRANSLTR, decodes emails all day long and searches for terrorist emails. TRANSLTR is now trying to decode the pass key to a file and it has been working on it for 16 hours, unsuccessfully. This is unheard of; an unbreakable code. Meanwhile, David Becker has been sent to Spain to retrieve the belongings of a dead man. Turns out David was sent to Spain by Susan's boss and in those belongings they expect to find a written copy of the pass key to break that code. And that's as far as I want to go in the story, so I don't spoil anything. This story is a thriller, keeping the reader on edge almost from the beginning. It bounces back and forth from two or three scenes with exciting situations in each. I found it hard to put down once I started. I loved the story, and enjoyed all the twists. Some of it was a little predictable, and there were a couple of flaws that I had to overlook, but I really did love the book. Review: Fast-Paced, Smart, and Full of Twists — A Classic Dan Brown Thriller - Digital Fortress pulls you in from the very first chapter. It’s a mix of tech, mystery, and government intrigue that keeps the tension high without feeling overly complicated. Dan Brown does a great job explaining the world of cryptography and code-breaking in a way that’s easy to follow, even if you’re not into tech. The pacing is quick, with short chapters that make it hard to put down. There are a few predictable moments, but the overall story keeps you hooked with enough surprises and suspense to keep flipping pages late into the night. If you enjoyed The Da Vinci Code or Angels & Demons, this one delivers that same mix of intellect and adrenaline. It’s a solid, entertaining read for anyone who loves high-stakes thrillers with a tech twist. Pro tip: if you’re new to Dan Brown, this is a great starting point, it shows where his signature style began. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,557,992 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #50 in Technothrillers (Books) #166 in Espionage Thrillers (Books) #1,487 in Suspense Thrillers | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 18,593 Reviews | ## Images ![Digital Fortress: A Thriller - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91Oane5f2GL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ There Are a Couple of Flaws, but I Loved the Story *by J***N on December 11, 2016* I read all of Dan Brown's Robert Langdon books and I really liked them, so I finally decided to get the other two (Digital Fortress and Deception Point) and see what I would think of them.
