Publisher's Synopsis
In 1581 the old Templar chapel at Shalford in Berkshire gave up its secret to the hidden Key. Eighty years later the relic found its way from England to the new Province of Maryland packed among the belongings of the Gentleman Adventurer, George Yate. Before he even set foot on his new lands his companions began dying. Were they victims of the rebels who were attacking the government George served? Or common thieves and villains? Or agents of mysterious powers willing to kill anyone to regain control of The Key? The Gentleman Adventurer is a five star rated historical thriller, a first class mystery, and the true love story of two of America's early Colonists.
