July 2005. In the Pyrenees mountains near Carcassonne,
Alice, a volunteer at an archaeological dig, stumbles into
a cave and makes a startling discovery-two crumbling
skeletons, strange writings on the walls, and the pattern
of a labyrinth.
Eight hundred years earlier, on the eve of a brutal crusade
that will rip apart southern France, a young woman named
Alais is given a ring and a mysterious book for safekeeping
by her father. The book, he says, contains the secret of
the true Grail, and the ring, inscribed with a labyrinth,
will identify a guardian of the Grail. Now, as crusading
armies gather outside the city walls of Carcassonne, it
will take a tremendous sacrifice to keep the secret of the
labyrinth safe.
