Francis Hoyt is a master burglar who specializes in stealing high-end silver, breaking into homes that seem impenetrable. He has never been caught in the act, although he has spent some time in prison on a related charge --- time he used to hone his craft and make valuable connections. One day, Charlie Floyd, an experienced investigator who has recently retired from his job with the attorney general’s department for the state of Connecticut, receives a phone call from Manny Perez, a Cuban-American Miami police detective. Perez, who has worked with Floyd previously, wants to enlist the former investigator in his efforts to put an end to Francis Hoyt’s criminal career. Floyd accepts the offer, and they team up to bring Hoyt to justice.
