The Amber Room is one of the greatest treasures ever made by man: an entire room forged of exquisite amber, from its four massive walls to its finely crafted furniture. But it is also the subject of one of history's most intriguing mysteries. Originally commissioned in 1701 by Frederick I of Prussia, the Room was later perfected Tsarskoe Selo, the Russian imperial city. In 1941, German troops invaded the Soviet Union, looting everything in their wake and seizing the Amber Room. When the Allies began the bombing of Germany in August 1944, the Room was hidden. And despite the best efforts of treasure hunters and art collectors from around the world, it has never been seen again.

Thank you Releanna, for this book and the rest of the presents in my birthday package!
Finally got around to reading this. It was another fun, suspenseful book, my second one by this author. A bit far fetched in some places, but that was to be expected, I think.
Personal hand-over during a mini meetup.
Thank you! This book is on the wishlist of a UK Uncon attendee, so it will come with me to Newcastle in a few weeks.
ETA: That was a mix-up - it was Sebastian Barry, not Steve Berry on that wishlist. This book will come with me anyway, at least up to Brussels, maybe all the way to England.

Thank you for leaving this book in Newcastle for me to find on my mini wknd away. I have picked it up and will be taking it to the Dominican Republic with me in a week's time to read on my holiday đ
I have read this book, it was brilliant, such a gripping read. Once I started I read it in a week. I have left it now in the Dominican Republic.
Happy reading to whoever finds it next.
