In 1089, the powerful Abbot of Cluny in western France sends a Benedictine monk by the name of Ramiro on a secret assignment to Jerusalem, giving him a mysterious cross to deliver. But what begins as a simple mission soon becomes a wild and terrifying excursion through the extraordinary and exotic kingdoms of the medieval Middle East.
Determined to complete his assignment, Ramiro is thwarted time and again by emperors and sultans, monks and mystics, slave-warriors and savages-and a carpenter''s daughter who haunts his dreams.
Hunted down by a Turk warrior from Antioch, Ramiro rushes into the last leg of his journey only to encounter a new enemy-the bloodthirsty crusaders of Europe. And when he finally arrives in Jerusalem, he is shocked to discover that the Cluny Cross could cost him his life.
