The title is a pun on the religious organization Knights Templar
The Saint has found himself back in Britain and again on the trail of
arms dealer Marius. While executing a scheme to root Marius out from hiding by
infiltrating a bogus nursing home, Templar and his associate Roger Conway rescue who they
initially think is an elderly man held prisoner by one of Marius'
compatriots Templar soon discovers that they've actually rescued the
beautiful daughter of a millionaire upon whose safety relies world
peace.
