  NASA has discovered a meteorite in an Arctic glacier which has fossils -- of extraterrestrial life forms! Thats the premise of the book Deception Point. This is Dan Brown's third book. The protagonists in the story are Rachel, an intelligence expert for the NRO and Tolland, an oceanographer. There is also Rachel's dad, a Presidential candidate who is hellbent on winning the Presidency by bringing to light the recent inefficiencies and failures of NASA. Rachel is requested to visit the Arctic to confirm the details about the meteorite. Could such extraterrestrial lifeforms have formed the origin of life on Earth? What Rachel discovers there casts a big doubt on all this.

  The book is a good read. Much better than Brown's Digital Fortress. Much like his other books I've read, though the story is quite lame, he keeps throwing interesting tidbits that keeps me engaged.

  gud one. started on a Washington note. keeps me going.
  the ups and downs are catchy. and a lot of odds on their way. and our guys get over all of it. decently paced. Non Robert Langdon, which was good as well as bad. does that ECE exist? lol
  thumbs up.......

  I read this book a couple of years ago and maybe I was just so impressed with all the 'factual fiction' that Dan Brown is so famous for that I got overly excited and thought it was a brilliant book. It's not.

  The writing is cringeworthy at times and some parts are so cliche Hollywood its hard to read. However it's not all bad its an okay storyline with an original plot. But that's about the extent of the good points.

  If you want something fast-paced and exciting then here you go just don't expect to have any life-changing moments while reading it. And as for the last chapter with the love scene in the White House...come on....

  Typical Dan Brown.
  Annoying narrative inconsistencies in a frame of perfectly researched details, obvious "surprises", cheesy cliffhangers at the end of each very short chapter, monodimensional characters.
  Still, the story holds up decently and the reader wants to find out how it ends.
