In the course of a routine burglary, Vincent Papineau, a petty thief,
steals an item of objet d'art of exceptional ugliness. Thinking
that the unsightly object is of little value, Vincent sells it on at a
derisory price, not realising that it has a secret compartment
containing a huge sum in banknotes. The money was destined for
Carlotta Luciani, who just happens to be an expert when it comes to
organising revenge killings...
