Martin Weitz

Martin Weitz is an award-winning film-maker turned thriller writer. His films on human mysteries, like the amazing "Brainman" and “ The Real Rainman” have been top-rating TV shows in over 200 countries and won many prizes, including a BAFTA nomination.

In his novel, THE ELENA TEXT, he introduces a new 21st century hero – the charismatic Moses Frank, a rags to riches international antiquities dealer who orchestrates the clandestine Jupiter group – an anonymous group of obsessive collectors, shadowy government officials and maverick Vatican agents.

“For me, every chapter in my book is like a scene in a film. Moreover, many of the larger than life characters I have met both in front, and behind the camera, when producing and directing real life documentaries for TV, have provided me with wonderful material for the characters in my books.”

STOP PRESS Martin has almost finished writing the second volume in the Moses Frank Trilogy and it will be published in the Autumn of 2019! Watch this space for details of publication date.
