San Francisco Chronicle A literary joke plunges its creators into mortal danger in this captivating intellectual thriller by celebrated author Umberto Eco. A Colonel Ardenti starts it all: He tells three editors that he has discovered a coded message about a centuries-old Knights Templar plan to tap a mystic source of power greater than atomic energy.
