In October 1307, every Knight Templar in France was arrested at dawn. The charges were heresy, blasphemy, and corruption. The confessions came quickly, most of them under torture. Seven years later, the Grand Master burned at the stake after recanting everything he had admitted.

This book asks the question that the official record never cleanly answered: were the Templars guilty, or were they destroyed by a king who needed their wealth and a pope too politically compromised to stop him?

Drawing on the original trial transcripts, the 127 articles of accusation, and records from England, Iberia, and the Holy Roman Empire, The Knights Templar Trials follows the evidence where it leads, including where it contradicts the verdict.
