Deception Point

Census claim confirmed. The Pocket Books US hardcover of 2001 is the true first in any language and there is no competing 2001 UK edition: Transworld/Corgi did not publish Deception Point in Britain until 2004 (a paperback, ISBN 0-552-15176-9), issuing the backlist only after The Da Vinci Code broke in 2003, so every UK issue is a reprint. This is Brown's third novel and completes the pre-fame quartet with Digital Fortress, Angels & Demons and Deception Point's siblings.
