A modern-day adventure/mystery based on artifacts left by Templar Knights during a secret mission to North America in 1398. Attorney Cameron Thorne is thrust into a bloody tug-of-war involving secret societies, treasure hunters and keepers of the secrets of the Jesus bloodline. Joined by Amanda, an enchanting British researcher with secrets of her own, Cam races around New England with only two … two choices–unravel the 600-year-old mysteries encoded in the ancient artifacts, or die trying.
Based on actual historical artifacts, and illustrated.

This was an awesome book. Mixing lots of fact with fiction is pure genius.
I knew about some of the history presented in the book, but was amazed at a lot of it, too. This book will give The DaVinci Code a run for its money.
Many books in the Dan Brown genre keep appearing on the horizon, and overall this one wasn’t the worst I’ve seen. The plot’s depiction of geographical and factual searches kept me interested. The detail involved dragged down the story, however; frequently it felt like a droning professor’s lecture. The time frame for all of the discoveries the characters made was simply unrealistic.
Lots of info on the Knights Templar.
“Page turner” hard to put down
I highly recommend this book. It may change your perception of religion.
