The Treasure of the Sierra Madre by B. Traven is pretty good. However, it's about prospector's hunting unrefined gold rather than some valuables piled up by someone else. The prospectors have a few adventures in the process of finding and extracting the gold, but the main crisis has to do with how the gold affects them. The writing style is a bit dry, so if you can't handle it, you should at least watch the movie.
Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to be available as an ebook, at least not in North America.
