The knights templar They were warrior monks, dedicated to the protection of pilgrims in the Holy Land -- until an avaricious king savagely destroyed the order. One knight, however, escaped the stake, vowing justice for his murdered brothers. A gathering of evil With scores of merchants streaming into Devon to participate in the Tavistock fair of 1319, a goodly amount of unlawful activity is expected. No one, however, anticipates a murder. The guests of Abbot Robert Champeaux, former Knight Templar Sir Baldwin Furnshill and Simon Puttock, bailiff of Lydford, have been asked by their host to investigate the grisly discovery of a headless corpse by a local butcher. Hunting a killer in the din and bustle of the fair could prove a daunting task, especially with the victim's identity a mystery. But Sir Baldwin and Simon are determined to unravel the complex weave of intrigue, rage, and violence that has brought death to Tavistock -- even if it means courting their own destruction.

"[...]it a touch of insanity; and a sudden sense of the danger to which the child must necessarily be exposed in the charge of such a keeper, increased the Lady's desire to keep him in the castle if possible. "You mistake me, dame," she said, addressing the old woman in a soothing manner; "I do not wish your boy to be in attendance on myself, but upon the good knight my husband. Were he himself the son of a belted earl, he could not better be trained to arms, and all that befits a gentleman, than by the instructions and discipline of Sir Halbert Glendinning." "Ay," answered the old woman, in the same style of bitter irony, "I know the wages of that service;-a curse when the corslet is not sufficiently brightened, -a blow when the girth is not tightly drawn, -to be beaten because the hounds are at fault, -to be reviled because the foray is unsuccessful, -to stain his hands for the master's bidding in the blood alike of beast and of man, -to be a butcher of harmless deer, a murderer and defacer of God's own image, not at his own pleasure, but at that of his lord, -to live a brawling ruffian, and a common stabber-exposed to heat, to cold, to want of food, to all the privations of an anchoret, not for the love of God, but for the service of Satan, -to die by the gibbet, or in some obscure skirmish, -to sleep out his brief life in carnal security, and to awake in the eternal fire, which is never quenched." "Nay," said the Lady of Avenel, "but to such unhallowed course of life your grandson will not be here exposed. My husband is just and kind to those who live under his banner; and you yourself well know, that youth have here a strict as well as a good preceptor in the person of our chaplain." The old woman appeared to pause.[...]."
