Read it:
Britain from the Brink's-Mat gold of 1983 to the bitcoin seized in London in 2018: a country with some of the world's best criminal investigators and some of its most permissive machinery for cleaning money. A solicitor brings robbers' gold money into Docklands property; an independent panel finds a form of institutional corruption in the Metropolitan Police's handling of an axe murder; a Bradford jeweler pushes hundreds of millions in cash through a high-street bank; an accountant registers a minister's name to prove nobody checks; a British territory's premier is convicted in Miami. Covers Kenneth Noye and the Brink's-Mat gold, Michael Relton and the Docklands, Curtis Warren and the Jersey cannabis plot, Fowler Oldfield and NatWest, Qian Zhimin and the seized bitcoin, and Andrew Fahie and the British Virgin Islands.
