There was one knight, however, who escaped the stake, vowing justiceas he watched his innocent brothers die.

A former Knight Templar, Sir Baldwin knows much of duty and servitude -- and of evil freely indulged in thename of godliness or greed. Now justice must be served,even if their search exposes extortion, foul corruption,rule by fear...and killers willing -- even eager -- to shed more blood.
