Inhoudsopgave
Colofon - Beschikbaarheid
John Raffles, a charismatic gentleman‑thief, and his loyal companion Charly Brand plot a daring heist that targets the colossal fortunes of America’s trust kings. Disillusioned by the way the ultra‑rich amass wealth at society’s expense, Raffles sees his crime as a twisted form of justice, intent on siphoning cash from the vaults that sustain their empire. Their conversation in a London smoke‑filled office reveals a partnership built on skill, audacity and a shared contempt for conventional law‑enforcement.
The pair soon board a luxurious Pullman train that snakes across the United States, eyes fixed on the powerful copper magnate Mr. Brown and the wheat‑tycoon who controls the nation’s grain market. As they eavesdrop on the moguls’ schemes, the scope of the operation expands, hinting at a complex game of deception, daring infiltrations, and the ever‑present risk of being caught. Listeners are drawn into a world of high‑stakes intrigue where elegance meets criminal ingenuity.
