The Lost Symbol ロスト・シンボル

The city’s history and symbolism play a big role in the plot’s mysteries. I wonder if the author drew from real lore or created it entirely for the story.

The action scenes and revelations came so quickly — was this intentional to ramp up tension or just how the story evolved?

Blending history and mystery is tricky — I’d love to hear what process or research went into making it feel authentic yet suspenseful.
