A monastery is burned to the ground; every monk within killed. It now falls to Conrad of Marburg, a disgraced Inquisitor, to discover the motive for this heinous crime and make sure that those responsible are punished... but his journey into darkness is only beginning! A medieval thriller and a swashbuckling 14th century relic quest - Indiana Jones meets The Name of the Rose!
