It should be remembered as New Zealand's answer to Britain's Great Train Robbery: in the dead of the night, robbers broke into the Waterfront Industry Commission's offices and made off with an audacious loot equivalent to almost $1 million today. This 1956 heist, which eventually came to be known as the Waterfront Payroll Robbery, was executed with military precision and the robbers left nothing but a smoking office and an empty safe behind them. The crime was eventually pinned on small-time crook Trevor Nash. When four years later, Nash made a brazen prison-escape attempt, he rose to notoriety as a kind of anti-establishment hero. But to this day uncertainty remains about whether Nash alone was responsible for the waterfront heist. Could he really-cunning as he was-have pulled it off all by himself? And what happened to the money? Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

What a great todo over not much at all.
It’s odd this book, it’s like it was written in the 80s, was it? I wonder?
Instead of a great robbery it is about an ordinary robbery followed by a tedious account of various minor crims and the usual ineptitude of the NZ Police on top of the cowering corruptness of the NZ Govt.
Really? ( )
