    [synopsis] => A detail-driven account of how a gang of criminal misfits pulled off the world's biggest cash robbery, from the bestselling author of true crime classic “Fred & Rose”.

The target was a regional counting house for the Bank of England, a fortified concrete bunker located within a triangle of police stations, one only three hundred yards away. When former UFC cage fighter Lightning Lee Murray discovered that this cash centre held hundreds of millions of pounds, he assembled a team of mates including a mechanic, a roofer, and a used car dealer. A hairdresser made disguises for the men so they could pass off as police officers. In an Ocean's Eleven—style robbery, the gang succeeded in hauling away a lorry-load of cash, a staggering £53 million (worth $87 million at the time) a world-record sum. That's when their problems began.

By turns thrilling and hilarious, Heist is the compelling true story of this mind-blowing crime, including background on Lee Murray, the build-up to the heist, the robbery itself, and its aftermath.
