Crime does pay. At least for a while. You'll see that quickly in
these the ten compelling and true stories of brilliant plans,
guile, and nerves of steel. The thieves awaiting you seem to have
it all. They are clever, cool, and set at their goals with icy
resolve. It takes a lot of guts and nerves of steel to do what they
did and not fold under the pressure. After all, if those
hard-wrought plans fail, they'll have plenty of time to think about
what went wrong in prison. Break into the poshest hotel in New York
City and roust guests and security guards for the jewels and cash
hidden in front-office deposit boxes under the tightest security?
Hijack an airplane, demand a ransom and two parachutes, then
disappear? Invent a device that allows you to record the
combination of any bank vault, then break into bank vaults twice?
Steal from a secret mob depository run by a boss known for his
brutality? Why not? The Greatest Heists Stories Ever Told will
allow readers to appreciate the efforts that go into a truly
magnificent heist. It is a celebration of stunning, well-planned
and audacious capers that left police and armies of investigators
looking for answers and scratching their heads. Maybe that's what
assures us that there will always be more heists. There is always
that golden chance of getting away with it. Among the stories
included are: The Lufthansa Heist The Oddball Crew and the $17
Million Heist The Last Good Heist The Pierre Hotel Heist Hijack! DB
Cooper's Great Escape
