The story of Alisha and Paul becomes far more nuanced and complex as their lives move forwards, but also more otherworldly as the magic of an enchanted history starts to unfold through the revelations by mysterious individuals they encounter. They must contend with the brutal consequences and reality of others determined to eradicate both of their family lines. As Alisha and Paul both become politically aware, they must question everything and try to judge who is genuine and who plots against them. But they must also face up to the path they have chosen and the great responsibility that falls upon their shoulders alone, one that still echoes across the pages of history to our times now.

Mysteries of the Templar’s recovered real treasure that was hidden thousands of years before accepted recorded history, is revealed and how they became guardians of not only that sacred ancient treasure but also mans very future. As Paul fights for his family against impossible odds and an evil that threatens mankind’s existence, he must struggle to unlearn all he had thought was fact and face the reality which faces all of us. To safeguard a greater treasure for future generations’ benefit, to help them unshackle themselves from the grip of a self-styled secret elite who manipulate religions, governments, queens and kings alike to stop us from reaching our full potential. But to succeed in that challenge Paul must face his own desires and his worst fears in order to protect a legacy, one that the ancient Magi and Druids fully understood and protected but one he must now sacrifice all else to guarantee its continuation, even at the cost of his own family if destiny dictates.

This is the second book in the Outremer series by the author and adventurer D. N. Carter.
