During these chapeters we learn about Silas. Silas is a runaway convict as a little kid he killed his father and numerouse people witout a purpose. He was sent from jail to jail until one night an earth quake caused a giant rock to fall on his cell and broke a hole on the wall. Silas quickly got up and ran out he sprinted down hill for some days. After a couple weeks he was dying he randomly came upt to a church. The abbe of the church helped him get his life back together. Silas din't remember his name but he knew what his new purpose in life was it was to spread the word of the lord Jesus. One night on the news he heard they where looking for inmates that ran away from jail after an earthquake. He wanted to run away because the abbe wa going to turn him in to the authorities so he thought. A few minutes later the abbe came in with a bible he stared at the confused man watching the news. The abbe gave him an open bible and told him to read a section in it. This part talked about how jesus gave a man named Silas another oportunity to live he broke his jail cell so that he could escape. The abbe then said everyone diserves another chance you shall now be known as Silas.

The Da Vinci Code post 1

The book starts of by introducing a Harvard profesor named Langdon. During this time he is in france giving presentations. One night someone shows up to his hotel room trying to talk to him he completely ignores him and tells him to come back tomorrow because he is tired. The night after this another person visits him he can't deny him since he is part of the french equivalent to the C.I.A. Langdon is then taken by force because he has to help solve a mistery. The man that had previously tried to contact him was Saunière. Saunière  had been found dead inside the Louvre. That wasn't it though he was found naked and with symbols drawn on him with his own blood. He also left some writing around him that could only be seen with a black light. The weirdest thing about this was that he had done all of this to him self.
