Exciting research and interesting speculations about the Order of Poor Knights of Christ and the Temple of Solomon! Why is St John the Baptist so important? Who was Mary Magdalene and was she Mary of Bethany? What is the connection between St John the Disciple and Mary Magdalene? What is the 'John gesture'? Are there Mysteries encoded within Leonardo's work? Whose image is on the Turin Shroud? What did the Templars discover in the Holy Land? What is special about Friday 13th? Was Mary the 'Ark of the Covenant'? How important was alchemy to the Templars, the cathedral builders, Leonardo and others? 



Did the Templars learn alchemy in the Outremer, and did they bring this hidden wisdom to Europe? Is spiritual enlightenment and transformation part of the Great Work? Did the Templars know the special properties of the soil upon which hospitals were built? Why did Templars choose round churches? What is the significance of the Sacred Rose? What do the troubadours, ten original Templars, the Grail legend, alchemy, cabalism, the Black Madonna and Mary Magdalene have in common? What do the early Grail legends reveal, from Glastonbury in 1205 and Provence in 1220?

What is special about the Notre-Dame de France, a church which sits on what was once Templar lands in London's heartland? Who was privy to secret knowledge about Jesus? What do the authors say about the Priory of Sion, the Cathars, Bernard of Clairvaux, the Languadoc, and other extraordinary aspects of their investigations? Who were the prime movers of the building of gothic cathedrals and the stone mason guilds? Was the feast day of Mary Magdalene a day of celebration? Was Chartres an area devoted to the black Madonna and depicted the first representation of Mary Magdalene in stained glass? What is the hero's journey? Who was Simon Magus? Who was Sophia? What was the sacred lineage? What do the Gnostic Gospels reveal? The mystery of Rennes Le Chateau, Priory of Sion, and other revelations follow with detail examinations of possibilities that Jesus could have been involved in a mystery cult, his origins, teachings, healings, associates, life and death. 

All these questions are answered in the 500 plus pages of fascinating text. I am convinced by many of the conclusions. It is an exciting, marvellously written book that I recommend! You will not be disappointed. Good value for money definitely! Review by Wendy Stokes https:wendystokes.co.uk
