Monsters prey on the innocent. He preys on the monsters. The world believes in science. In rational explanations. In the comfort of knowing that what you see is all there is. Cade Williams knows better. Since the night the Adversary—a fallen angel with eyes like burning coals—murdered his wife, Cade has been able to see beyond the veil. The Beyond, they call it. The realm where demons plot humanity's downfall and the ghosts of the dead whisper secrets from the other side. As the commander of the Knights Templar's Echo Team, Cade walks both worlds: one foot in the tactical reality of modern warfare, the other in an ancient battle between light and shadow. When corpses start crawling from their graves and a necromancer's dark ritual threatens to tear open the gates between worlds, Cade must use every gift he possesses—including the ones that mark him as a heretic. But seeing the truth comes with a price, and the deeper Cade looks into the Beyond, the harder it is to find his way back.

Praise for the Templar Chronicles   "First-rate, stylish work from Mr. Nassise, with a steady escalation of the story's speed that makes it almost literally breath-taking."  -- New York Times bestseller Clive Barker   "A breakneck-paced thriller that delivers on the thrills and tosses in more than a few more chills."   -- New York Times bestseller Kelley Armstrong   "With HERETIC, Joseph Nassise kicks off his TEMPLAR CHRONICLES in fine, swaggering style. This book bobs and weaves like the young Muhammed Ali, keeping us off-guard and entertained with its every surprising move."  -- New York Times bestseller Peter Straub   "Brutal, gut-wrenching, and unstoppable. Nassise blends history and fantasy into the monster-hunting saga of Cade Williams. The angels soar in The Templar Chronicles, but so do the demons."  -- Eric R. Asher, author of the Vesik series   "Gripping and powerful! Nassise builds rich characters, vibrant worlds, and plots so deep that they draw you in and snare your mind. His books are quite simply unputdownable."  -- John P. Logsdon, author of the Paranormal Police Department series   "The Templar Chronicles sucked me in from the first page and kept me turning pages all the way to the end. High-octane action, crisp writing, and interesting settings create a universe easy to get lost in. Urban fantasy needs more heroes like Cade Williams. Nassise nailed it!"  -- E.A. Copen, author of the Lazarus Codex series .   "Every story Joseph Nassise weaves is a grand tapestry of words and wit - then with alarming twists and revelations, he tears it all apart. Visceral, vicious, and at times heartbreaking, Nassise's writing lingers, much like the entities that inhabit his world."  -- Nazri Noor, author of the Darkling Mage series   "We all look for stories that grab us from the first page. We want a fascinating lead with a mission we can get behind and a voice that can carry us all the way into another world. Eyes to See has it all - a tough, jaded hero with the ability to see ghosts all around us (as in everywhere!) and a mission to find his daughter. No matter what. Memorable characters, plot twists, and wonderful hints of more to come will have you glancing at your bedside for ghosts and book two."  -- Ben Zackheim, author of the Relics series   "Joseph Nassise is an absolute master of paranormal horror and suspense, which is why so many other authors turn to him for advice on the art of storytelling.
