The following characters appear in Dan Brown's novel ''Angels & Demons'' (2000). ==Gunther Glick and Chinita Macri== Gunther Glick and Chinita Macri are, respectively, an investigative reporter and camerawoman who in the world of Dan Brown's ''Angels and Demons'', work for the British Broadcasting Corporation and are assigned to cover the papal election presented in the novel. Glick is described as looking rather odd, with a thin face and slim build. Chinita is of African American descent (implying that she is originally from the United States), slightly overweight, with a jovial manner. Macri is depicted as more conscious and less of a risk taker than Glick, but also very protective of him. They are considered nuisances by the protagonists for much of the novel because they come along to relate for the television audience the events of the night. Glick has been hired away from a fictional British gossip magazine to work on "less important" (in Macri's estimation) stories for the BBC. Glick is called by an unknown individual (revealed as The Hassassin) who scoops him on the murder/torture of four members of the College of Cardinals and planned bombing of Vatican City. After the first murder is revealed, Glick and Macri latch on to the protagonists, Robert Langdon and Vittoria Vetra, in their all night search for the antimatter canister cleverly placed to destroy Rome and the Catholic Church. It is they who reveal the details to other over the air networks (MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC and CNN, among others) and continue to provide live updates (including Carlo Ventresca's live speech from inside the conclave) despite threats from the Swiss Guards and Papal Office personnel. Glick also attempts to spice up the coverage with theories of his own, which comes back to haunt him later. In the last hour of the novel, Glick and Macri capture for the worldwide audience Ventresca's mad dash into St. Peter's Basilica to retrieve the antimatter canister. After the stunning conclusion, a subdued Glick and Macri wrap up with the announcement of the new pope, Cardinal Saverio Mortati, and a brief explanation of why Ventresca could also be considered a pope. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of Angels & Demons characters」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
