Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
A fantasy-adventure story in the manner of The Raiders of the Lost Ark, this particular lost Ark is located in Turkey at the site of the temple of the Sun God, where the legendary hero Gilgamesh lies buried. Inside, Gilgamesh keeps company with a jeweled sword that is a source of power for whoever owns it. Rick Spear (David Warbeck) is a safecracker who has been sent to open the temple and retrieve the sword -- no easy task, since if anyone tampers with the temple's locks, the entire building is designed to self-destruct.
