Every Stop Has a Story

The Tomb of Sir Isaac Newton

The riddle's mysterious 'orb' turns out to be a literal one: the celestial globe on Sir Isaac Newton's tomb, depicting the exact path of the comet that passed overhead in 1680.

Hunted in Plain Sight

This wide-open square, once the jousting tilt-yard for the Palace of Whitehall, offers no cover at all, the exact reason the characters feel so exposed crossing it under the government district's CCTV network.

The Hidden City

This narrow lane, a private legal enclave since the 14th century, is lined with Elizabethan buildings that survived the Great Fire, its car-free maze of courtyards exactly why the characters use it to shake their pursuers.

The Knight Effigies

The ten knight effigies Langdon and Sophie search for a 'missing orb' turn out to be cenotaphs, memorials for men who are actually buried somewhere else entirely.

A Knight a Pope Interred

Langdon's search shifts from a physical chase to a historical one inside this former Public Record Office, whose 12-sided Round Room sits beneath a zinc-and-glass dome, its walls lined with miles of shelving built to hold the nation's state papers.
