At the heart of the Freemansory, the final secret of the Knights Templar is coming to light...
A new breed of killers is born: insiders who no longer understand physical or moral pain elite owners of multinationals and politicians who have abandoned all vestiges of humanity to seize supreme power. These are the members of the Kadosh Kaos branch. These are the Assassins. When the Freemasons discover the existence of this savage sect, they choose Antoine Marcas to infiltrate their ever-expanding ranks. But what Marcas doesnt know is that he will have to face up to a terrible secret that has been the cause of vicious dispute between the Knights Templar and the Islamic sect of the Assassins. Marcas has never gone so far in a mission: now he too has no choice but to follow the Assassins Cross.
- The Assassins Cross is a new, exciting voyage into the shadowy corners of history as well as the story of a vast contemporary political conspiracy.
- In this Marcas' adventure, Eric Giacometti and Jacques Ravenne once again explore the mystical threads of history and freemasonry two worlds which they have unravelled and in doing so definitively renewed the esoteric thriller genre.
-The theme of the Knights Templar is dealt with in the new light of their acknowledged, but still mysterious, relationship with the Assassins, with whom they shared the same ideal of religious chivalry.
Jacques Ravenne is the pseudonym of a high-ranking Freemason with intimate knowledge of the history and culture of the Order.
Éric Giacometti used to be an investigative journalist who reported extensively on Freemasonic mores.
