This latest Templar mystery takes place when a pilgrim from Lincoln is slain in the Order’s hostelry in Dover. Since the murder occurred on Templar property, Bascot de Marins is asked to investigate.
The victim, a saddler, was waiting to board a Templar ship for his journey to the Holy Land when he was killed. Since he was a stranger to the port, Bascot’s first action is to try and discover if he had any enemies in Lincoln who followed him for the purpose of despatching him.
But his efforts fail, and when another citizen of Lincolnshire is murdered in Dover, Bascot travels there with Gianni to continue his enquiry. Again, there seems to be no one who bore enmity to either of the men who were slain and it is not until vital information sent by one of the victims to his family in Lincoln prior to his death finally arrives that a trail to the identity of the murderer becomes clear.
