The history of the Knights Templar is one of the most fascinating and controversial of the Middle Ages. Founded as a monastic-military order to protect pilgrims heading to the Holy Land, the Templars quickly became a major economic and political power, amassing wealth and influence that aroused fear and rivalry.
On October 13, 1307, their downfall began with their arrest ordered by Philip IV of France: a trial that mingled accusations of heresy, financial interests, and power games. From that moment on, legend became intertwined with history, and the Templars became the protagonists of myths that still fuel the collective imagination today.
This novel was born from the desire to give voice to that era, to convey to the reader not only the chronicle of events, but the depth of emotion, the weight of oaths, and the strength of sacrifice. Geoffrey de Rochefort is not just a knight: he is the symbol of every man facing an impossible choice, between the temptation of power and loyalty to his own soul.
