The Brinkâs-Mat raid was the robbery of the century, the stuff of legends in the criminal underworld. On November 26, 1983, a group of robbers burst into the Brinkâs-Mat warehouse near Heathrow Airport, expecting to find a decent-sized haul of cash  but instead they stumbled upon nearly seven thousand gold bars worth £28 million. More than twenty-five years later, £20 million of bullion remains unrecovered, and it is thought that most people in possession of gold jewelry made in the UK after 1983 are wearing Brinkâs-Mat. Wensley Clarkson is the leading expert on the crime. In addition to having met and interviewed many of its most important figures on both sides of the law, he has secured the co-operation of several members of the original gang to provide unprecedented insight into what happened. This is the definitive account, not just of the robbery itself but of its aftermath, its legacy in modern crime, and the infamous Âcurseâ that has seen so many of those associated with the gold meet a violent end.
