The Story

When a nobleman’s ring surfaces in modern-day France, renowned antiquities expert AnaRose Preston is summoned to authenticate its origin. Her examination reveals a long-whispered legend. Hidden within the hilt of a dagger lies a Holy Nail, one of the crucifixion nails said to pierce Christ’s body.

As AnaRose traces the knight’s unfinished journey through medieval ruins, she unravels ancient clues while evading a secret sect sworn to protect the relic’s sanctity. But the truth is more elusive than legend, and her pursuit may preserve history or conceal it forever.

The dagger may resurface. The Nail’s fate remains hidden. Some treasures are not meant to be found. Begin the chase with AnaRose and the Templar’s Quest and uncover the past before it vanishes forever.
