For over two hundred years a search for treasure on Oak Island has unfolded. The source of the hidden treasure are the guardians of the world's greatest secrets.
When the order of the Knights Templar was ruthlessly dissolved in 1307, it possessed immense wealth. Yet none of the treasure amassed by the Templars has ever been found. This lost treasure is believed to contain artifacts of spiritual significance that were retreived by the order during the Crusades, including the genealogies of David and Jesus , as well as the documents that trace these bloodlines into the royal bloodlines of Mervingian France. What connects the Templar treasure to Nova Scotia is the Sinclair family. Serving as hereditary guardians of the order, they carried the treasure across the Atlantic nearly one hundred years before Columbus. A complex of tunnels and booby traps were placed that still defy treasure hunters today!

Bodhi Tree Book Review, Winter 1999 / Spring 2000
Lost Treasure of the Knights Templar
If you enjoy a good non-fiction mystery, a kind of arm chair treasure hunt, and are a bit of a closet archaeologist or a medievalist to boot, this is a book for you. Fascinating reading."
