Summary
Before the multi-million, runaway bestseller The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown set his razor-sharp research and storytelling skills on the most powerful intelligence organization on earth—the National Security Agency (NSA)—in this thrilling novel, Digital Fortress.
When the National Security Agency’s invincible code-breaking machine encounters a mysterious code it cannot break, the agency calls its head cryptographer, Susan Fletcher, a brilliant, beautiful mathematician. What she uncovers sends shock waves through the corridors of power. The NSA is being held hostage…not by guns or bombs but by a code so complex that if released would cripple U.S. intelligence.
Caught in an accelerating tempest of secrecy and lies, Fletcher battles to save the agency she believes in. Betrayed on all sides, she finds herself fighting not only for her country but for her life. It is a battle for survival—a crucial bid to destroy a creation of inconceivable genius that threatens to obliterate the balance of world power…for all time.

Better ending:
Susan wakes up at the end to find a note from david explaining that he is in a gay relationship with the commander who she thought was in love with her. The five digit password was actually "DAVID". David and the commander both skip off into the sunset hand in hand.

Trashy, yet enjoyable
I was shocked that, in a great departure from his later work, not everything was what it seemed in this Dan Brown novel! We know what to expect of the man at this point. There was a few painful literary cliches, a mystery that you can't solve unless you have an advanced degree in the relevant subject and everyone took themselves just a bit too seriously. As long as you're not expecting to have your world rocked, it's good fun and extremely easy listening!

A good first draft of Dan Browns trade mark style
lacks the punch of the Robert Langdon stories but is still enjoyable. story has dated a little but I'm not sure that is a bad thing as the style is a little nostalgic.

Great book
Love it, nearly as good as deception point. Love how he makes you like each character and tells it from their point
