FInally!  Late last year Stephenie Meyer held top spots 1-4 of our 'Most requested list' and now, for the first time in a long time, gives way to Dan Brown at #1 and Alice Sebol at #4.  Whether ir not it stays that way is another matter entirely.

Top 1The lost symbol
by Dan Brown

ADV BRO

"Washington DC: Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned at the last minute to deliver an evening lecture in the Capitol Building. Within moments of his arrival, however, a disturbing object - gruesomely encoded with five symbols - is discovered at the epicentre of the Rotunda. It is, he recognises, an ancient invitation, meant to beckon its recipient towards a long-lost world of hidden esoteric wisdom. When Langdon's revered mentor, Peter Solomon - philanthropist and prominent Mason - is brutally kidnapped, Langdon realises that his only hope of saving his friend's life is to accept this mysterious summons and follow wherever it leads him. Langdon finds himself quickly swept behind the façade of America's most powerful city into the unseen chambers, temples and tunnels which exist there."--Publisher description.
