Michael P. Spradlin's critically acclaimed The Youngest Templar series arrives to a dramatic close with the action-packed Orphan of Destiny, where the intrigue and danger continue as Spradlin brings the Crusader era to life in Tristan's final, nail-biting adventure!

Tristan, Robard and Maryam arrive in Dover after outwitting Sir Hugh in France, and successfully takeing back possession of the sacred Holy Grail. When he finally returns to the abbey where he grew up as an orphan taken in by the brothers, Tristan is devastated to find it burned to the ground with only Brother Tuck alive.

Brother Tuck gives Tristan three letters that will change his life forever: one from Henry II, Richard the Lionheart's father; one from Eleanor of Aquitaine, Richard's mother; and one, from Brother Rupert. The letters will reveal once and for all Tristan's parentage, and his true destiny.
