In the close-knit detectorist community, secrets don’t stay secret for long. With rare Anglo-Saxon coins in their possession, George and Layton turn to coin dealer Simon Wicks. But as coins start appearing at a Mayfair auction house, whispers of an undeclared hoard begin to spread.

June 2015, Herefordshire. Two Welsh detectorists - George Powell and Layton Davies - stumble upon a Viking hoard estimated to be worth up to £12m.

They could have become very rich and been celebrated as heroes in museums across the land. But instead, they began to hatch a criminal plot. Narrated by Aimee-Ffion Edwards (Detectorists/Slow Horses), this is the story of how to go from the luckiest treasure hunters on earth, to Newport’s most wanted.

George Powell is on the run from police, but trainee reporter Holly Morgan manages to track him down. She’s hoping he’ll finally reveal the truth about the missing coins, but George won’t make it easy.

As the pieces of treasure that have been recovered go on display in Herefordshire, the biggest question remains: with hundreds of coins unaccounted for, is the hoard gone for good – or is someone sitting on a fortune?
