La formula (1980)
C'era un piano tedesco, chiamato "Genesis", per ricavare dal carbone carburante sintetico, i cui documenti un generale è stato incaricato di portare in Svizzera alla fine della guerra. Ai nostri giorni, dopo l'uccisione a Los Angeles del capo della polizia (che aveva a suo tempo catturato quel generale), il detective Barney Caine ricostruisce le lotte di potere legate alla produzione petrolifera.
