Produktbeschreibung
On the morning of 26 November 1983, six armed men stormed the Brink's-Mat depot at Heathrow. They expected to find cash. Instead, they uncovered nearly three tonnes of gold bullion - Britain's biggest heist. What followed was more than a robbery. It became a decades-long saga of organised crime in London, smelting, laundering, betrayal and murder. The press called it the "curse of Brink's-Mat" as associates and launderers met violent ends. The Brink's-Mat Legacy traces the gold's journey from Heathrow to the furnaces of Hatton Garden, through timeshare frauds, drug cartels and international money laundering. Along the way, it examines the careers of figures such as Kenneth Noye, John "Goldfinger" Palmer, and others who shaped Britain's criminal underworld. Accessible, factual and gripping, this book sets the Brink's-Mat robbery alongside the Great Train Robbery and other famous heists, showing how a single crime changed British policing, law, and organised crime forever.
