Synopsis:
1291 AD, Acre. As the city burns under the onslaught of the Sultan's men, the Falcon Temple sets sail, carrying a small band of knights and a mysterious chest entrusted to them by the Order's Grand Master. But the ship vanishes without a trace...Present day New York. At the Metropolitan Museum, four horsemen dressed as Knights Templar storm the gala opening of an exhibition of Vatican treasures and, in a brutal and bloody attack, steal an arcane medieval decoder. For FBI agent Sean Reilly and archaeologist Tess Chaykin this is just the start of a deadly game of cat and mouse as they race across three continents in search of the ruthless killers - and a centuries-old mystery...

Bought this on sale today. I haven't read this myself, but will send it off as a surprise RABCK to someone who has this on their wishlist.

I don't really know why but this book lacked thrill somehow. The plot was alright (if a bit "Da Vinci Code-esque"), there was lots of action, conspiracy and historical speculations but in the end it was just an okay read.

Again, thanks so much for this rabck shimi:-]
