It's 1890 and one of the most daring robberies ever is about to take place in the heart of London. The infamous Count von Klugge, criminal mastermind, oversees the theft of numerous gold ingots from under the British constabulary's very nose. With the threat of financial crisis hanging over the country, the government turns to one man - Lord Porter - imploring him to set up the Special Counter- Intelligence Bureau. Talented individuals are handpicked and invited by mysterious telegrams to the beautiful, remote Drumloch Castle where, amid the bleak grandeur of the Scottish Highlands, they undergo rigorous training to achieve selection for the four Storm Force squads of the SCIB. Storm Force Alpha - William, the tough army lieutenant; Paddy, the Irish-born ranch hand; Sandy, the enigmatic, dashing naval officer and Charlotte, the beautiful, blonde martial arts expert - are the first team to be sent out and go bravely in search of the gold shipment. Their investigations take them across Europe, from the seedy East End of London through to elegant Paris and Venice, facing danger and murderous enemies at every turn. Can they track the elusive villain to his island hideaway or is this just what the Count was banking on, to lead them to their deaths.?
