This "novel" is intriguing...
September 2008.

Quite chilling in light of subsequent developments ~ in my opinion.

SYNOPSIS
For the first time in Portugal, the novel tells us the life and crimes of the most corrupt police inspector. The frenzied and insane day-to-day of a respectful law enforcement officer, who is both a dangerous and calculating serial killer . Discover the life of Maurício Fagundes.
Mauricio Fagundes, respected inspector of the Criminal Police, is after all anything but respectable. Even a colleague does not suspect what is really happening in his life: robbery, corruption, rape, murders without remorse.
In this novel, Paulo Pereira Cristóvão unveils, without language filters, an infinitely cruel and psychopathic character, but not at all unrealistic.
So imagine the obscure meanders of a crime underworld in Portugal.
EXCERPTS
"Cum. Another day of work on that f******g cop. I'm sick of lickers, who, besides licking all the race of director who enters the house, have become snitches, envious, pretentious clean and buried in so much s***t that almost can not open the eyes ...
I'm in a homicide brigade that is so sui generis that it deserved to make a series about it, damn it. The Criminal Police is the must of the police, but my brigade is the best one ever invented on this planet ... »

In the synopsis to 'A estrela de Madeleine' it is said ... "With a clinical and professional look, Pereira Cristóvão, aware that the case still remains a secret of justice, tries, in this book, to answer the doubts that have always persisted and presents a new vision," https://www.wook.pt/livro/a-estrela-de-madeleine-paulo-pereira-cristovao/202091
Surely that 'new vision' might give Robitty something fresh to get his teeth into during his sojourn in Luz ... or even bedtime reading?

Snip
Just as the first two kings of Jerusalem were "greatly obligated" to the Order of Sion for their positions, so prince Afonso was said to be "greatly obligated to members of the Order [of the Knights Templar]." This relationship became all too clear in 1129 when the king-in-waiting reissued the charter for the castle of Souré, -- the one his father had donated to the Templars before they were thought to exist. Afonso's wording on the reconstituted charter to the Knights Templar unequivocally reveals why he was so "greatly obligated" to the order: "I make this donation, not by force or by persuasion, but for the love of God, and for the good of my soul, and of my parents, and by the cordial love that I have for you, and because within your Brotherhood and in all your works I am a Brother."
The Templars had placed one of their own on the throne of Portugal, and more to the point, Afonso was also the nephew of their main benefactor and spiritual compass, Bernard de Clairvaux.

It would appear that the Templars were in with the bricks ... hung around for centuries ... and still provide an attraction for social climbers in modern day Portugal.
One wonders exactly what influence they are still seen to hold and how it is exercised.

It all rather falls flat on its face if you subscribe to the "other theory" that the Knights Templar held allegiance to God and The Grand Master but not to nation states. Which seems to have been what p***"d off King Philip of France apart from wanting their lands and money.. Edward Longshanks to his credit told Pope Clement to sit on a sharp stick unfortunately Longshanks son did not have the bottle of his old man.
