Lever Templar by Matt Gianni

Action packed historical riddle.

The Templars found something under the Dome of Jerusalem that gave them untold power over the church. In the 1300, the King of France launched a surprise attack on the Templar, killing almost all of them. No one found the secret.

In this fast-paced thriller told in two time-lines, Matt Gianni put forwards a believable theory. His meshing of the historical fact with fiction is flawless and pulls the reader right into the adventure. In the 1300 timeline, we cheer on Brimley Hastings, an English Templar sergeant as he struggles to hide the secret that give the Templars their strength. In the modern timeline, Rick Lambert and a team of specialists try to find a terrorist who is after the same prize.

Highly recommended
