The Templar's Daughter: A Phoebe McCabe Mystery Thriller (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798880284016)

When an ancient artifact is stolen from the crypts of London's Temple Church at the same time that a man is shot inside the historic property, Phoebe is compelled to track down the culprits, even if one of them turns out to be her own father-in-law, Sir Rupert Fox. But while Rupert attempts to block Phoebe's investigation, the noose tightens around his own neck as a mysterious and ruthless woman steps from the shadows to lay claim to the object.

Phoebe is determined to protect her father-in-law from his own folly even if it means that she, too, is drawn into the fray. As she begins to research the Templars, what she uncovers pitches her down a rabbit hole of gender assumptions forged in recorded history that ends with a startling revelation placing her dead center of an ancient mystery. Did the last Temple Master, Jacques de Molay, hold the keys to the Order's mythic treasury and could he have entrusted this secret to an unassuming and easily overlooked emissary?

That the artifact turns out to be nothing less than an illuminated manuscript chronicling the history of the Templars is only part of its allure; that it may also contain a coded map leading to the Order's last treasure vault, by far its most explosive aspect. Phoebe and Peaches launch a feverish race to Cyprus and the ghost town of Foikenas to discover the truth before the strange woman and her team steal a vital piece of history itself.

But Phoebe's relationship with time is complicated as her timewalking capabilities intensify, putting her in the crosshairs of the desperate, the disenfranchised, and the very portal of existence itself. If unable to pull herself together in time, she risks losing not only her friends, her husband and family, but her very mind.
