THE AMBER KNIGHT

A multi layered, fast-paced action thriller that spans eight centuries, from medieval Prussia to present day Poland and USA, centred on the legend of the Amber Knight. In 1232 Heroic Teutonic Knight, Helmut von Mau was killed in battle at Elblag. The town burned and the amber in the treasury melted. Helmut's fellow knights poured it into Helmut’s sarcophagus, shrouding his body and creating the Amber Knight. In present day Gdansk. Adam Salen, director of a museum trust receives photographs of the Amber Knight which disappeared in 1945, and a demand for 15 million dollars. His assistant, Magda, believes that, given a corpse, amber and armour the knight could be recreated. Adam wants the knight for the museum, but when a mafia hit man is found dead on Adam’s doorstep and more corpses are discovered in woods near Hitler’s Wolf’s lair, it seems there may be truth behind the myth that death awaits every unbeliever who looks upon Helmut’s face.
