The Book of Fate

Currently I have just begun reading The Book of Fate by Brad Meltzer. Primarily I got the idea to read this book from his T.V. show, Decoded. This show basically explores conspiracy theories in all subjects from The Mona Lisa to Fort Knox to the White House. I really enjoy reading this show, and it mentioned that some of the episodes were based off of his ideas from his books. So I've finally decided to read one of them.
I am only 46 pages into the book, but I am already starting to see where it is going. One person has already died, and lots of creative foreshadowing and mysterious descriptions have been used to keep me on my toes. The book has already revealed interesting facts about the secret service and how the president is kept safe in public. Although the story is fiction, a lot of the codes and couple hundred year old secret messages are based off of actual things.
So far I am really enjoying all of the book's devices and plot twists to keep me reading. This is shaping up to be an awesome book!
