"England, 1855. The days of Queen Victoria. Once a month a train roars toward the channel laden with a fantastic shipment of gold. The train is guarded. The two safes are invulnerable...Yet Edward Pierce, a handsome, redbearded rogue, will have his way. In his plan he will choose one companion--a beautiful and dangerous woman. He will commit one of the most shocking crimes of the century."

This was nowhere near as exciting as it should have been. It was actually kind of tedious.
An amazing insight not only into the crime itself, but also into Victoria London....
A great caper as well...
A very enjoyable read.
The first book by Michael Crichton that I've read (and led to many others). Great crime story, zips along. Also got turned into a decent movie starring Sean Connery. I believe the movie was directed by the author too, no?
