Product Description

Charlie Pritchard looks back and tells the story of a perfect bank robbery which he had planned meticulously forty years ago, together with the proprietors of the Rainbow Cafe. It was the best way to escape his mundane life in a small Welsh seaside town as a poorly paid clerk in Cadwallader's bank. He wanted to gain a triumph over his colleagues, and he wanted to live with the beautiful Delphine. He knew that this was his only chance for them to start a new life - with the stolen money.
