[Michael Heath-Caldwell · Rating 3 out of 5]

One of the sort of 'Urban Legends' that manages to date way back in time about various stashes of long last treasures in the south of France, embellished with speculation on speculation and conspiracy that manages to bring in everyone from Nostradamus to Marlene Dietrich.
