Train Robbery, The Brinks Mat Heist, etc. In this book they only receive a few pages each. This book really packs a very ... more  ... large amount of information into a comparatively low number of pages. Because so much information is crammed into this book, its possible to lose track of people within a few paragraphs, and a number of times I had to go back a few pages to work out who specific people were.
