THE KNIGHTS OF THE SALTIRE SERIES |
|
Described as "Mission Impossible meets the Knights Templar,"
The Knights of the Saltire Series is set in modern times about
a secret society that was formed to help preserve justice and
freedom.
The Order of the Saltire sees it as its duty
to identify where justice and freedom are in peril or under attack;
and to take action where possible to help restore justice and
freedom to those who have lost it.
Rather than acting as vigilantes, extracting
justice according to their own code, the Knights of the Saltire act
as an extension of the justice system, secretly helping law
enforcement bring criminals to justice without revealing the
existence of the Order. |
