- Synopsis
- When Arnold Landon of the Department of Museums and Antiquities discovers an important forgery, a local politician invites him to join a secret society inspired by the fourteenth century Knights Templar. Soon after Landon declines the invitation, the politician is found murdered, and Landon is drawn into a web of medieval intrigue and modern corruption. As Police Inspector Arnold Culpeper pursues one likely murder suspect, Landon and his friend Jane Wilson piece together clues from historical documents that describe the Knights Templar as "soldiers of Christ" and guardians of a fabled treasure. Their research leads them to the Scottish border, where the ruins of a secluded chapel could hold the key to the killer's identity and motive--as well as mortal danger for anyone who attempts to uncover the centuries-old secrets of the site.
