“Hang on a minute lads, I got a great idea!” Charlie Croker gets out of jail in London having been part of the London gangland mob. He attempts to stage a gold bullion robbery in Turin and starts forming a crew who can help him do it. The idea initially came from a friend Roger Beckermann, who thought of the gold bullion robbery. He is killed by the mafia and his wife gives Croker the plans. Croker has to carry out surveillance and try and pull the job off using ingenious methods to avoid escape firstly from the authorities and then trying to get all the gold out of the country undetected.
