You Too Can Write A Dan Brown Novel!

SWDU has turned into a regular bookworm during his travels and thinks he has uncovered a disturbing secret about Dan Brown's celebrated ramblings, which include the famous Da Vinci Code. The Wonder was initially unsure if he could go public about his theory as he is currently reading Angels and Demons, which is the last of his books to get the Wonder once over.

As you can see, the situation is in hand and A&Ds pages are rolling over like a Top Gear presenter chasing a land speed record. No place is sacred and this shot was taken during the Wonder bath-time, so it's fortunate how hopelessly under-exposed it all turned out. Oh, you're more interested in discovering the big book secret! Alright, here it is then...

Every book has the same plot!

Melvin, the most potent mole in the south, was dispatched to Mr Brown's office for a sneaky sniff around. He found a secret folder entitled "The Novel Blueprint" lurking under a strange looking typewriter that had been made by a German company called Enigma. When Melvin reported back to Wonder HQ, his findings were chewed over and thoroughly digested. It turns out that Mr Brown always follows the same plot when he needs a big wad of cash:

• There are some bad guys who are nastier than a dose of the runs
• The bad guys have an assassin, who is sharper than a well honed needle
• The clever bloke meets a pretty lady & they become "the good guys"
• The good guys crack some pointless codes to discover the dastardly deeds of the bad guys
• The bad guys try to kill the good guys but they are always "taken out" with a random object, such as a leek
• The good guys "get it on" until the next book

Lots of people think you're clever Mr Brown but The Wonder has got your number :-)
