| | Turning The Solomon Key : Foreword |
 | | In Orkney, we were still lingering over our desserts, dialogues and digestifs, until it was nearly midnight: the storm outside had dissipated, all other diners had departed, and the waiters were becoming palpably restless over our extended stay. |
 | | This midnight visit would be destined, as the screenwriter said, to be “the beginning of a beautiful friendship.” Robert Lomas describes the event in his 2005 book, Turning the Hiram Key, where he discusses (and shows pictures of!) the mysterious Kirkwall Scroll, and speculates upon its age and significance. |
 | | And Dan Brown has gone on record stating that he was inspired by secrets of Roslin Chapel revealed in The Hiram Key, in his research for The Da Vinci Code. |
