It premiered on Peacock in 2021.Robert Langdon, a professor of Symbology at Harvard, is called to Washington, DC, on short notice to speak at a symposium by someone claiming to be the assistant of his mentor, Peter Solomon. Arriving at the Capitol, Langdon discovers not a symposium, but Peter's severed hand pointing up to The Apotheosis of Washington, a fresco painted on the dome of the Capital Rotunda. He soon finds himself embroiled in the machinations of a mysterious individual named Mal'akh, who wishes to unlock ancient secrets supposedly held by the Freemasons.According to the production crew, the show is set before The Da Vinci Code.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: As of "Diophantine Pseudonym", Sato's clearances in the CIA were removed due to the numerous failures of her team in capturing Mal'akh. This means that she can't help Peter and company find more clues related to Mal'akh.

Present-Day Past: The series is meant to be a prequel to Tom Hanks' Langdon films, but the characters use technology (such as smartphones) that weren't prevalent or as advanced when The Da Vinci Code was released in 2006.
