There is an outbreak of robberies with threatened violence on small tobacconist shops in London. Gangs of long-haired youths are involved, led by someone known as ‘Golden Boy’. The Toff (the Honourable Richard Rollison) is curious as no one really understands the motive for these crimes which at first seem petty in objective, albeit serious. However, as he gets dragged deeper into the mystery, The Toff discovers there is much more at stake, and he is caught up in a rising crescendo of violence, mayhem and attempted murder.
