Description

In the pale dawn over the glittering Côte d’Azur, a sleek Renault tears along the coastal road, its driver and passengers a trio of daring outlaws. At the wheel sits the young, steady‑handed James Henderson, while beside him the infamous Gentleman‑In‑Breaker, John Raffles, whispers plans of a quick change of appearance to stay one step ahead of the Genoa police. With Charly, his loyal companion, close by, the group feels the thrill of the open road and the distant cries of gulls as they race toward an uncertain horizon.

Their flight is not just a simple getaway; it is the latest chapter in a long‑standing battle against the shadowy Golden Key Society, led by the ruthless Irwin Stanley. Having already toppled the gang’s previous commanders, Raffles now faces a new challenge that could push the hunters onto an uncharted island rumored to harbor cannibals. As the sunrise paints the sea gold, the fugitives brace themselves for the next daring turn in a game of wit, danger, and relentless pursuit.
