The National Treasure

Now Available

Janusz Rudzinski is a celebrated composer—creator of his country's national anthem. His greatest work is on everybody's lips. He is a vital part of everybody's life. He is a national treasure.

But when Europe is engulfed in war his country is the first to be invaded by the Germans. And now, as a focal point of partisan feeling, he is forced into flight. Over the course of seven days, Janusz's world is turned upside down; celebrity and wealth earned over a lifetime devoted to the art of his people suddenly means less than nothing. He's just another nationalist symbol that the invaders must destroy.
