Die Geschichte spielt in einem jahrhundertealten Gebäude in einer engen Straße im Herzen Londons, wo eine Firma namens das System, das weltweit lukrativste und am wenigsten bekannte Kartell, die Kontrolle über die Diamanten der Welt hat. Das Unternehmen wählt die Steine aus, die ein Kunde kaufen kann, und bestimmt, wie viel er für dieses Privileg bezahlen muss. Ein Händler hat genug von diesem Spiel und plant, das System für immer zu zerstören. Mit Hilfe seiner Geliebten entwirft Chesser einen Plan, um die Büros in der 11 Harrowhouse zu infiltrieren und sich mit jedem Diamanten, den das System besitzt, davonzumachen. Doch dieser milliardenschwere Raub ist nicht so einfach, wie es scheint, denn das System hat immer ein Auge darauf.
