The templar throne
(Book)

In the 14th century, Templar knight Jean de St. Clair was tasked with piloting the order's treasure-laden fleets off the coast of France. He used a Jacob's Staff, a world-changing natucail instrument supposedly developed in his own time. Retired Army Ranger John Holliday knows better because he possesses a similar instrument - one found in the hands of a 4,000 year old Egyptian mummy. Holliday suspects that St. Clair might hold the key to answering some of history's greatest questions - and to unlock the mystery of the incredible wealth, power, and influence of the ruthless, enigmatic Templars. But there are those who believe some questions should remain unanswered.
