The Templar's Secret (The Templar Series) - Plot & Excerpts
‘I not only hail from a noble ancestry, but an illustrious one as well,’ the old patrician rasped in a scathing tone of voice. Although the retort grated – a not so subtle reminder that it was the Spanish who introduced the asinine notion that a nobleman’s blood was blue not red – Caedmon was relieved that Don Luis Fidelis de Pinós spoke fluent English. In his experience, when conversing with the infernal serpent, it was always best to do so in one’s native tongue. It minimized the risk of a fatal misunderstanding. Biting back his annoyance at the other man’s insufferable conceit, Caedmon contritely bowed his head. ‘Please accept our apologies for the scheduling error,’ he said with feigned deference. ‘Miss Miller and I have travelled a long distance to speak to you regarding the Sovereign Order of the Temple.’ The glare still affixed to his face, the Marqués deposited the ancient flintlock into a desk drawer. Despite being a wheelchair-bound octogenarian, the Marqués de Bagá obviously fancied himself the daring musketeer.
