Series background & context

David S Brody's Templars in America books are historical-conspiracy thrillers built around one big idea: what if old artifacts and half-forgotten legends really do point to a hidden chapter of North American history?

At the center of the series is Cameron Thorne, who begins as an attorney and gradually becomes the kind of reluctant investigator who keeps getting pulled back into the next mystery. Early on, he teams up with researcher Amanda Spencer, later Amanda Spencer-Gunn, and together they chase clues through libraries, museums, stone chambers, churches, and remote historic sites. Their cases start with one strange object or story, then widen into a tangle of secret societies, religious controversy, and people who are willing to kill to keep certain theories buried.

These books love a riddle.

The historical hook changes from novel to novel, but the larger feel stays consistent. Cabal of the Westford Knight starts with New England legends tied to medieval Templar explorers. Thief on the Cross turns toward early Christianity. Powdered Gold plays with Ark of the Covenant lore. Later books bring in Atlantis, Columbus, Roman artifacts in America, Oak Island, Freemasonry, Kabbalah, John the Baptist, the Philosopher's Stone, and even artificial intelligence. The pattern is simple and fun: Brody takes one provocative historical claim, asks what would happen if it were true, and then drops Cameron into the blast zone.

Setting matters here. A lot.

New England is more than scenery in this series. Westford, Newport, Plum Island, old Masonic halls, coastal towns, and mysterious stone structures all feel like active parts of the plot. Even when the action stretches farther afield, the books keep circling back to places where the American landscape itself seems to be hiding evidence. That local texture helps ground the wilder ideas.

The tone is fast, talky, and high-stakes. These are not quiet historical novels. They are chase-heavy thrillers full of coded documents, buried relics, fringe history debates, extremist groups, and modern political or religious fallout. Cameron is usually trying to solve a puzzle before someone else weaponizes it, whether that someone is a fanatic, a spy, a cultist, a modern Nazi, or a rival secret order. As the series goes on, the personal stakes rise too, especially once family becomes part of the danger.

Even with the recurring cast, most of the books are written to stand on their own, so readers can jump in with an early title or pick a later premise that sounds especially interesting. If you like novels where scholarship, speculation, and suspense all get thrown into the same blender, this is Brody's home turf. The big promise of the series is not that every theory is true. It is that every theory might be just plausible enough to keep you turning pages.
