Más información sobre el libro

The narrative centers on master thief Stâephane Breitwieser, who executed over 200 heists across Europe, stealing more than 300 art pieces, not for profit but for personal admiration. Accompanied by his girlfriend, who served as his lookout, Breitwieser showcased remarkable athleticism and an uncanny knack for bypassing security systems. His obsession with theft ultimately led to a reckless disregard for danger, culminating in a dramatic downfall after one last audacious act. Michael Finkel explores this captivating blend of artistry and criminality.
