The Knights Templar
They had all joined taking three vows: poverty, chastity,
and obedience…for they were monks: warrior monks, dedicated
to theprotection of pilgrims in the Holy Land -- until
stories spread by anavaricious king who wanted their wealth
for his own destroyed the order. There was one knight, however, who escaped the stake,
vowing justiceas he watched his innocent brothers die. A Dastardly Deed
When the mutilated body of midwife and healer Agatha
Kyteler is discovered in a hedge one frozen wintry morning,
it at first appears the lack of clues will render the crime
unsolvable -- until a frightened local youth inexplicably
flees his village and a hue and cry is raised. Sir Baldwin
Furnshill, once a Knight Templar, however, has doubts about
the boy’s guilt, and enlists friend and bailiff of Lydford
Castle, Simon Puttock, in the hunt for a murderer. But what
they seek lies somewhere on the darker side of the village
of Wefford, beneath layers of jealousy, suspicion, and
hatred -- and the buried truth could prove fatal to anyone
who disturbs it.
