The Holy Grail has been found. Now it must remain a secret.
In this sequel to Dawn of Shadows, Remy de Lusignan returns to Jerusalem. Left broken by the death of his beloved wife, Ayla, he hopes to regain his honour by protecting pilgrims as a Poor Knight of the Temple. His old friend and founder of the Templar order, Hugh de Payens, however, has other plans for him. For Remy de Lusignan, having already proved his honour and his courage, is needed elsewhere in the ranks of another military order. An order that, officially, does not exist.
Protected by the utmost secrecy, they are the Covenant Knights: an elite unit of "ghost-warriors" created to protect a devastating weapon that has remained hidden since the time of Solomon. A weapon of untold power that has attracted the attention of another mysterious organisation known only as Omega, who have been searching for the Grail for centuries.
And who will stop at nothing to obtain it...
