STORY:
In a casino in Monte Carlo Simon meets
his old friend Bill Fulton. Because he is a professional drummer in a band
the father of his fiancé Meryl Vascoe will not let them marry. On
the contrary - he does everything to foil every chance for Fulton to get
an employment in a band. So Templar bets against Vascoe that his prized
art collection will be robbed in the next 4 days. With a burglar proof
alarm system and Colonel Latignant on his heels this seems like an impossible
task...
