Description The wheels were beginning to turn.
The Big Caper..
The grand slam.
Until the wheels began to pick up momentum, and suddenly a fire lit the sky, and the power went off all over town and under way went the king-sized knockover.
Safe-until precisely ten-fifteen on Saturday night.
For in the center of town sat the bank-a citadel of twelve million dollars, impregnable as Gibraltar, safe as a church.
There was the arsonist, the safe blower, the boy-faced killer-there was a regiment of crack, lawless men waiting out the minutes until Saturday night-the night the town would explode into violence.
From all parts of the country quiet, tough men slipped into the small southern coastal town and took up the final vigil.
