"The King of Fear" (2009) is a narrative treatment for a feature film presented in first-person present tense. Set against the backdrop of the Great Game, it blends historical adventure, occult intrigue, and epic mythology as archaeologists, Sufi agents, and Russian plotters race to control the hidden Iskandar Pass and the power of Shambhala. The story centers on Lana Veruschka, a mysterious medium; Alan Vaughn, a Sufi-officer spy; and the villainous Grand Lama Aguan Dorjeev — the King of Fear — whose golden mask and ancient prophecies threaten to reshape empires.
