A daring heist. A trusted insider. A betrayal that shook an empire.
In the heart of Victorian England, as gold bound for the Crimean War sped through the countryside aboard a secure train, a cunning band of thieves pulled off one of the boldest robberies in history. The Great Train Robbery: The Crime of the Century (1855) unravels the astonishing true story of how £12,000 in gold vanished mid-journey—without a trace.
Author James G. Edwards II brings to life the criminal genius of Edward Agar, the deception of an inside man, and the intricate planning that fooled railway officials and eluded investigators for months. But when trust crumbled, so did their scheme.
Blending rich historical detail with a fast-paced narrative, this book immerses readers in a world of steam, smoke, and subterfuge—where the only thing more remarkable than the crime was the audacity of those who dared to commit it.
