NBC will air a two-part, four-hour miniseries of Raymond Khoury's New York Times bestselling novel The Last Templar (Signet) this weekend.  Oscar-winner Mira Sorvino stars as Tess Chaykin, a Manhattan archeologist who is pulled into an international mystery when four horsemen, dressed as Templar knights, burst into a gala celebrating Vatican artifacts at the Metropolitan Museum. During the chaos they steal one specific treasure and vanish into the night.  FBI Agent Sean Daley, played by Scott Foley (The Unit, Felicity), is also put on the case and together with Tess, sets off on an amazing adventure in hopes of finding the truth behind the Templar Knights' greatest secret.

The Last Templar runs on NBC (channel 4 in the NYC area) on January 25 and 26, 2009 at 9:00 pm.  For more information about the film visit www.nbc.com/the-last-templar. Current editions of the Signet paperback feature a burst on the cover with information about the movie and more information about Raymond Khoury and the novel can be found both at the Penguin Books site and Raymond Khoury's web site.
