Langdon learned the shocking reality that Sienna had actually been Zobrist’s lover and disciple. Sinskey and the provost, who had begun working together after the provost showed Sinskey a chilling video Zobrist had requested to be released to the media, convinced Langdon that no one was trying to kill him and that they were all on the same side, with the exception, perhaps, of Sienna.
Before they could travel to that city, Langdon and Sienna were separated when Langdon was captured by the men working with Sinskey. Using cryptic clues that Dante enthusiast Zobrist has left, Langdon and his new friend Sienna Brooks tracked the virus to the city of Istanbul. They told him that he had retrograde amnesia caused by a gunshot wound to his scalp, and they provided an altered form of reality in which they convinced Langdon that the people sent by Sinskey to find him were trying to kill him. The provost and his people wiped Langdon’s memory. Sinskey’s plan for Langdon to help locate the pathogen was quickly derailed when he was detained by the provost, a man who had provided a sanctuary in which Zobrist could work. Sinskey hoped to find and contain the contagion before it had tragic effects. Zobrist had led Elizabeth Sinskey, director of the WHO, to believe he had created a plague to cull the population. The virus is believed to have been created by Bertrand Zobrist, a Transhumanist who thought that the world was in danger of collapse because of overpopulation.
In the novel Inferno by Dan Brown, Harvard professor Robert Langdon is recruited by the World Health Organization (WHO) to help locate a deadly pathogen. NOTE: All citations in this guide refer to the Kindle version of Inferno, by Dan Brown, published May 14, 2013.
