"En augustimorgon år 1911 smyger en man osedd ut genom en bakdörr på konstmuseet Louvren i Paris. Tätt intill kroppen bär han en tavla, väl dold under kläderna. Mannen har stulit Mona Lisa, och snart är damen med det gåtfulla leendet världens mest eftersökta person." I "Miljonkupp och rån" skildras några av historiens mest spektakulära, och ibland uppfinningsrika, rån. Som rånet då elva mön iklädda Halloweenmasker kom undan med det största bytet i USAs historia, eller när en man utklädd till tomte rånar en bank den 23 december.

Blekingegadebanden fortsætter op gennem firserne med en stribe danmarkshistorisk store røverier som julekuppet i Daells Varehus og rullestolsrøveriet i Herlev. I samme periode overvåges gruppens medlemmer af efterretningstjenesten. Men hvorfor bliver de aldrig afsløret? I 1983 er kriminalpolitiet tæt på at opklare gruppens røveri mod en pengetransport i Lyngby. Men i al diskretion bliver efterforskningen stoppet fra højeste sted i Justitsministeriet.

Blekingegadebandens historie handler om meget mere end et millionrøveri mod et postkontor i Købmagergade og drabet på en ung politibetjent i 1988. Historien begynder sidst i 1960'erne, da kommunisterne Gotfred Appel og Ulla Hauton samler en gruppe oprørske unge mennesker under sig og sender dem til Jordan i militær træningslejr hos Folkefronten til Palæstinas Befrielse, PFLP.
