The Templar Tower

Time is running out for the Templars and new enemies are circling. At the height of their power, with vast possessions across Europe, the Templars begin their preparations for the greatest threat their Order has faced. Under the command of the knight known as "The Masoin", Salvatore di Radda is tasked with carving out the beginnings of a last Templar redoubt in the Alpine strongholds in what is now modern Switzerland. His greatest danger, and the greatest enemy the Order faces is his own brother, Father Missimo, a leading member of the Inquisition. In a parallel story line, Peter Sparke and Professor Tilly Pink find themselves embroiled in the pursuit of a long last document which could establish the truth behind the legend of the Templars in Switzerland. Sparke, now wealthy from his famous discovery of the Templar treasury in the Scottish Highlands, looks forward to a quiet life of amateur research, but finds that a harder thing to attain than he imagines.
