A bit disappointing. I expected more of a dramatization of the story in the vein of historical fiction. What it read like was a book-length investigative journalism piece. Interesting, but not terribly dramatic.

A very interesting, though quite rushed and abbreviated, account of the 1970s bank robbery in Nice, France that was frequently called "the heist of the century".

An interesting tale of Europes largest bank robbery and its leader, Albert Spaggiari which netted10 million in gold, cash and jewelry. The twists continue due to Spaggiari's escape from a courtroom and his taunting of police trying to catch him in the pursuant decades. He never was located until after his death and the majority of the 10 million never recovered.
Its a quick read with fast pacing however nothing overly special about the writing that will make it more memorable.

Somewhat interesting account of robbery in Nice, France of which I had not heard about, and with an ending I didn't expect either. I'm sure there are many more secrets that have never been revealed in this tale.
