Cotton Malone has retired from government service and is selling books in Denmark. His former boss comes to visit and she is assaulted by a man who turns out to be a modern day Templar. With that Cotton follows his former boss to France in a search for the los Templar treasure. This was an okay thriller though it took a logn time to get going. The first 200 pages were a lot of history of the Templars and not much action.
This is the first book in the Cotton Malone series as well as the first book I've read by Steve Berry. The story was interesting, the puzzle intriguing and the characters (most anyway) likable.
The story centered on a hunt for the treasure of the Templar Order. While the clues were clever, the story was often slowed by too much theological discussion. But, overall the story was interesting and well written and I will be reading more in the Cotton Malone series.
Overall rating: 3.75 ...more
