In AD 1291, following the fall of Acre, Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem to the Saracens, a small party of Knights Templar leave the city with a small chest. Their ship, the Falcon Temple, is damaged in a storm at sea and sinks. One of the Knights is mortally wounded in the event; he dies on land after hiding a small leather pouch under a gravestone. He charges the remainder of the ship's company to deliver an encoded letter to the Head of the Templars.
The last surviving Knight reaches Paris in 1314, just in time to see the Grand Master Jacques de Molay being burned at the stake after refusing to reveal the location of the Templars' treasure. The last Knight commits himself to maintaining the legend of the Templars' threat to the Catholic Church.

Gus Waldron, Branko Petrovic, Mitch Adeson[edit]
These are the three men who with Vance attacked the museum and took the multigeared rotor encoder. The three are killed by a man named Plunkett who is a henchman of De Angelis, who hunts them down and kills each in a different way.
William 'Bill' Vance[edit]
Vance is the main antagonist and raids the museum and takes the encoding device. His motives are to release to the world that Christianity is based on a falsehood. The falsehood is that Jesus of Nazareth was divine and not just a spiritual teacher. He believes that this will be the end of the religion. He wants to do this because a priest advised him and his wife against aborting a high-risk pregnancy. This resulted in the deaths of Vance's wife and unborn daughter. Vance dies after he falls from a ledge reaching for the Gospel.
Monsignor De Angelis[edit]
De Angelis is a monsignor working for the Vatican. He is behind the killing of the three raiders and sinks the boat Tess was on to prevent the recovery of the figurehead containing the Templars' chest. He also received training and orders from the CIA.

TV miniseries[edit]
NBC made a two-part television miniseries starring Mira Sorvino, Scott Foley, Victor Garber, and Omar Sharif. It aired over two successive nights: Sunday, January 25 and Monday, January 26, 2009. It re-aired Sunday, May 31 and Sunday, June 7, 2009.The TV miniseries The Last Templar was criticized in Turkey by the media for misrepresenting the geography of Turkey.[5]
The movie is much different than the book. In the movie, Tess pursues the Met's 'Templars' on a police horse; in the book she was hiding with everyone else. Gus is depicted as a crook who was trying to solicit an antiquarian's help to sell the relict he stole at the Met; in the movie this line is omitted. Vance was shooting Tess at the cemetery (with a paralyze gun) and, literally, kidnapped her to his dungeon, while in the movie he is presented as Tess' friend. The role of Tess's daughter, Kim, is left to a minimum in the book, while in the movie she is helping her mom to solve a clue on old Arab town's location. The name of the 'Turkish' town recorded by Al-Idrisi is different, and in the book it is underwater (as a result of a nearby dam's work). Reilly is taken to Vatican where he was compelled to help in finding Tess and Vance; in the book they all and De Angelis on the same boat. There are more differences than similarities between the book and TV miniseries.
Sequel[edit]
A sequel to the novel, The Templar Salvation, was published in 2010.
Departure from reality[edit]
In the book The Arch Angel Michael is conflated with St. Michael. It is claimed he is the patron saint of seafarers and protects fishermen. In reality the patron saint of fishermen is Andrew the Apostle and the patron saint of seafarers is Brendan the Navigator. Michael is called in the Greek Orthodox Church only Archangel Michael, and not St. Michael in Orthodox terminology. Michael is the patron saint of soldiers, paramedics, paratroopers, police officers, security officers.

Plot[edit]
At the New YorkMetropolitan Museum, four horsemen dressed as 12th-century knights storm the gala opening of an exhibition of Vatican treasures and steal an arcane medieval decoder. Archaeologist Tess Chaykin (Mira Sorvino) and FBI agent Sean Daley (Scott Foley) engage in a chase across three continents in search of the enemy and the lost secret of the Knights Templar.[3]
Criticism of the miniseries in Turkey[edit]
The TV miniseries The Last Templar was criticized in Turkey by the media for misrepresenting the geography of Turkey as that of an Arabian country.[4] In the movie, the events that take place in supposed Turkey are set in 'Bodrum', which is a green region with beautiful beaches and landscape. However, the movie shows the Turkish city as an empty desert. This was criticized in Turkey for further reinforcing the misconception in the minds of average Canadians that Turkey is an arid, empty country with no developments and covered with deserts similar to those found in other countries.
