The story

Aspiring Cockney cat burglar Harry Tristan Dean and his sculptor friend Emile Fournier discover exotic Eurasian showgirl Nicole Chang in a crowded Hong Kong nightclub. Nicole bears an uncanny resemblance both to the late wife of the world's richest man, an Arab named Ahmad Shahbandar, as well as to a priceless bust statue of an ancient Chinese Empress, Li Su, owned by the tycoon in tribute to his dead bride. Harry and Emile need Nicole for a scheme to steal the Li Su, replacing it with a copy created by Emile.
