Much more interesting than I had thought it would be., 18 Oct 2004
By frumiousb "frumiousb" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bullion: Brinks-Mat, the Story of Britain's Biggest Gold Robbery (Paperback)
Bullion tells the story of the 1983 robbery at the Brinks-Mat warehouse near Heathrow, in which 26 million pounds of gold bullion was stolen. Three investigative journalists (Andrew Hogg, Jim McDougall and Robin Morgan) examine not only the crime itself, but the roots that the crime and its aftermath had in both British and American organized crime.I picked this book up when I had literally nothing else to read. I was not expecting very much. In the past, I have found True Crime books that I have read to be shoddily researched, overly shocking, or heavily biased and I have not enjoyed them. Bullion is a pleasant surprise in that it seems more concerned with facts than either sensationalist aspects or pushing a particular agenda. The research that the three have done feels complete, and they do a good job of detangling the connections so that the story is understandable to the average reader.
