Description
In the Pyrenees mountains near Carcassonne, a mysterious discovery sets off a chain of events that will change the course of history. Alice, a volunteer at an archaeological dig, stumbles upon a cave containing two crumbling skeletons and strange writings on the walls - the pattern of a labyrinth. Eight hundred years earlier, Alais is given a ring and a book for safekeeping by her father, who claims it holds the secret of the true Grail. The ring, inscribed with a labyrinth, will identify a guardian of the Grail. As crusading armies gather outside the city walls of Carcassonne, the fate of the secret hangs in the balance. The story that unfolds is one of sacrifice and bravery, as the past and present collide in unexpected ways.
