Resumen

With none knowing the others beyond the latter two having been enlisted US Army buddies during the war, Miles Ravenscourt, Mike Morgan, Joe Halsey and Eddie Blaine - a "gentleman", a just retired boxer, a New York office clerk just fired due to his priority of dealing with an issue with his British wife Mary Halsey, and a US Army officer, respectively - are similar in many ways despite their outward differences: each is in his early thirties, is married (only two relatively happily in love with his wife), has never been in trouble with the law, and arguably most importantly is immediately in need of money due to the unfortunate nature of recent circumstances, the need for that money to get back to a point in their lives where they were headed before those unfortunate incidents. While the latter three are proverbially good men, Rave, who has lived off his wife Eve Ravenscourt, and whose father, Sir Francis Ravenscourt, in detesting what Rave has become, will not give him his share of inheritance, is more desperate for that money. Their lives are forever changed in a chance meeting at a London pub and becoming drinking buddies in the process. Rave, in not being up front about his money issues, feigning his suggestion all in an act of friendship, is able to convince the others, with a little smooth talk, to rob a £90,000 shipment passing through a local post office, they agreeing on the caveat of no violence. Rave, however, may have other ideas than what he has proposed to his new "friends".—Huggo
