The greatest heist stories ever told /
"You'll see that quickly in these nine compelling and true stories of brilliant plans and guile. The thieves awaiting you seem to have it all: They are clever, cool, and determined with icy resolve. It took a lot of guts and nerves of steel to do what they did and not fold under the pressure. After all, if those hardwrought plans had failed, they would have had plenty of time in prison to think about what went wrong. 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? Rob a small-town bank at midday and ride off without a second thought? Piece of cake. The Greatest Heist Stories Ever Told allows readers to appreciate the efforts that go into a truly magnificent heist."--Page 4 of cover

The hidden truth / by Senuta, Michael.(CARDINAL)669272;
When the Coltonville express office is robbed and the clerk is murdered, Will Grant is arrested for the crime. Found at the scene -- wounded and holding the smoking gun that was used in the shooting of the clerk -- Grant stands trial, is found guilty, and is sentenced to prison. A year into his sentence, Grant is released when the dying confession of one of the thieves exonerates him. He returns to Coltonville, where he is given a hostile reception by most of the locals, who remain skeptical about his innocence. Supporting Grant's efforts to clear his name are his friend Steve Collins and his sister Mary. Also playing a role in the robbery investigation is beautiful Nora Masters, a new reporter who has more than just a passing interest in Grant's case. However, Grant's status is further complicated when money from the express office robbery begins to surface for the first time -- within days of his return.

An exquisite strand of pale pink pearls, worth more than the Hope Diamond, has been bought by a Hatton Garden broker. Word of the Ḿona Lisa of Pearlś spreads around the world, captivating jewelers as well as thieves. In transit to London from Paris, the necklace vanishes without a trace. Joseph Grizzard, t́he King of Fences,́ is the charming leader of a vast gang of thieves in Londońs East End. Grizzard grew up on the streets of Whitechapel during the terror of Jack the Ripper to rise to the top of the criminal world. Wealthy, married, and a father, Grizzard still cannot resist the sport of crime, and the pearl necklace proves an irresistible challenge. Inspector Alfred Ward patrols the citýs dark, befogged streets before joining the brand-new division of the Metropolitan Police known as d́etectives.́ Ward earns his stripes catching some of the great murderers of Victorian London and, at the height of his career, is asked to turn his forensic talents to finding the missing pearls and the thief who stole them. In the spirit of The Great Train Robbery and the tales of Sherlock Holmes, this is the true story of a psychological cat-and-mouse game set against the backdrop of Londońs golden Edwardian era. Thoroughly researched, compellingly colorful, The Great Pearl Heist is a gripping narrative account of this little-known, yet extraordinary crime.
