One night, in a small North Carolina town, a down-on-his-luck guard at Loomis Fargo manages to steal $17 million - literally more than one ton of cash. Despite being caught on camera wheeling the money from the vault to the getaway van, David Ghantt makes off to Mexico before the FBI can blink. There's just one hitch: Ghantt has entrusted the money to an oddball crew of accomplices who had wooed him into committing this massive theft in the first place - and who, he soon learns, are trying to take him out.

Sommaren 2003 sker ett av Sveriges mest uppmärksammade rån i blekingska Bräkne-Hoby. Efter långa förberedelser slår Toni Tuunainen och två kumpaner till mot en värdetransport innehållande 15 miljoner kronor. Det är det perfekta brottet, tror de, men polisen är dem på spåren. En intensiv eldstrid utbryter. När skotten tystnat ser Toni sin ena kompis död på marken. Han flyr till Stockholm och får syn på sitt ansikte på kvällstidningarnas löpsedlar.

Blekingegadebanden fortsætter op gennem firserne med en stribe danmarkshistorisk store røverier som julekuppet i Daells Varehus og rullestolsrøveriet i Herlev. I samme periode overvåges gruppens medlemmer af efterretningstjenesten. Men hvorfor bliver de aldrig afsløret? I 1983 er kriminalpolitiet tæt på at opklare gruppens røveri mod en pengetransport i Lyngby. Men i al diskretion bliver efterforskningen stoppet fra højeste sted i Justitsministeriet.

Blekingegadebandens historie handler om meget mere end et millionrøveri mod et postkontor i Købmagergade og drabet på en ung politibetjent i 1988. Historien begynder sidst i 1960'erne, da kommunisterne Gotfred Appel og Ulla Hauton samler en gruppe oprørske unge mennesker under sig og sender dem til Jordan i militær træningslejr hos Folkefronten til Palæstinas Befrielse, PFLP.

On the morning of August 23, 1973, a man wearing a wig, makeup, and a pair of sunglasses walked into the main branch of Sveriges Kreditbank, a prominent bank in central Stockholm. He ripped out a submachine gun, fired it into the ceiling, and shouted, "The party starts!" This was the beginning of a six-day hostage crisis - and media circus - that would mesmerize the world, drawing into its grip everyone from Sweden's most notorious outlaw to the prime minister himself.

He was a cunning Berkeley Law grad who lost his job and hatched a con. Then he got rich and ran fast on an outlandish Adderall-fueled rush of stolen cash, multiple identities, and a euphoric fantasy of success. A Ponzi scheme was exposed, and a prominent Manhattan hedge fund imploded. Enterprising intern and financial wizard-in-training Gerti Muho saw it as an opportunity. He had insider knowledge and a knack for fraud, embezzlement, and identity theft. His steady supply of falsified prescriptions helped. Muho was on a luxury high. His luck seemed bottomless.

Over Easter weekend 2015, a motley crew of six English thieves, several in their 60s and 70s, couldn't resist coming out of retirement for one last career-topping heist. Their target: the Hatton Garden Safe Deposit, in the heart of London's medieval diamond district. Perhaps not the smoothest of criminals - one took a public bus to the scene of the crime; another read Forensics for Dummies in hopes that he would learn how to avoid getting caught - they planned the job over fish and chips at their favorite pubs.
