Lloyd’s has paid one and a half million pounds to the Carco Security transportation company for the assault of an armored van full of gold ingots. Now, after fifteen years, Lloyd’s hopes to get back the loot by putting a detective after Paul Gaudin, one of the authors of the robbery, who will soon be out of prison.
