Helpful Score: 3

In the genre of the Da Vinci Code, but with fewer cryptograms and more action. Kept me up 'way past my bedtime.
From back cover:
In 1291, a young templar knight flees the fallen Holy Land, and sets out to sea with a mysterious chest entrusted to him by the Order's dying grand master. The ship vanishes without a trace.
In present-day Manhattan, four masked horsemen dressed as Templar Knights stage a bloody raid on the Metropolitan Museum of Art during an exhibit of Vatican treasures. Emerging with a strange geared device, they disappear into the night.
The investigation that follows draws an archaeologist and an FBI agent into the dark, hidden history of the crusading knights--and into a deadly game of cat and mouse with ruthless killers--as they race across three continents to recover the lost secret of the Tamplars.
