Story Overview
In The Shadow of the Templars, American George Stobbart, who is touring Europe, is a witness and victim of a bomb attack on a Parisian café "La Chandelle Verte", caused by a clown, later revealed to be a serial killer named Khan, who steals an old man's briefcase and then sets off a bomb inside the café. Shortly after, he meets a French photo-journalist, Nicole "Nico" Collard, with whom they try to discover who is responsible for the murder of the old man, Plantard, and while doing so, end up unraveling a conspiracy relating to the Knights Templar. The third and fourth game, The Sleeping Dragon and The Angel of Death, also follow the Templar-related story line: The Sleeping Dragon continuing the story from The Shadow of the Templars with a number of returning characters, while in The Angel of Death, George and Nico, with a newly-introduced character Anna-Maria, unravel a mystery related to the Catholic Church. Unlike the other installments, in The Smoking Mirror, George and Nico unravel a Mayan mystery, involving the Mayan god Tezcatlipoca.

“The old world stands serenely behind the new, as one mountain yonder towers behind another, more dim and distant. Rome imposes her story still upon this late generation.”
