Does The Lost Symbol Have a Secret Connection?

Janice Harayda thinks the cover to Dan Brown‘s The Lost Symbol is a “copycat” of Rhonda Byrne‘s The Secret. What do you think? Are the covers too close for comfort, or is Harayda reading too much into a pair of crimson wax seals?

Harayda goes on to point out how aspects of the “noetics” Brown talks about in his novel bears similarity to the “law of attraction” from The Secret, but we’re willing to chalk that up to the fact that there’s only so much New Age philosophy to go around.
