London, 1855—where fortunes ride the rails, and one man dares to steal them.
Edward Pierce is the very picture of Victorian respectability, navigating high society with effortless charm. But behind the polished façade is a master criminal plotting the unthinkable: the greatest gold heist of the era, executed aboard the most secure steam train in England.
With corrupt officials, intricate disguises, and meticulous planning, Pierce manipulates a web of accomplices to pull off the crime of the century. But as the day of reckoning nears, one wrong move could send it all crashing down.
Based on a true story, The Great Train Robbery is a gripping historical thriller from Michael Crichton that blends fact with breathless fiction. Will Pierce outsmart them all—or go down with the train?
