Synopsis
A gold bullion robbery takes place on the outskirts of Marseilles in 1978. No one is ever arrested for the crime, nor is the
gold ever found.
But twenty years later, two men receive an unexpected gift. Chief Inspector Daniel Jacquot's is from an old fisherman who recently passed away. And lawyer Claude Dupont's is from a gangland boss on his prison deathbed.
Why?
The clues will lead Jacquot and Dupont into a bitter war against two of the most feared criminal families on the Cote d'Azur and a race against time to find the lost bullion.
But after twenty years, is the gold still there?
And if it is, who will get to it first?

"Chief Inspector Jacquot of the Marseilles police is fast becoming one of my favourite fictional cops. He is aided by O'Brien's great sense of place and intrigue and this time it's personal" - Daily Mirror
