Having read through the fascinating witness statement provided by Dan Brown for the current copyright trial in London (between Brown’s publisher, and the authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail), I thought I’d break down some of the hints and clues he provided (unintentionally, I’m sure) about his next novel. On my Solomon Key website, I’ve written a new essay titled “Solomon Key Hints – From Dan Brown Himself“, which goes through some of the revelations you’ll find hidden in the many pages written by Brown about his writing and researching process. Happy to say I seem to have been proven correct on a number of predictions, and also that I was right in surmising that Brown used Knight and Lomas’s The Hiram Key extensively for The Da Vinci Code, despite it not being mentioned within the novel.
