It wasn’t just a robbery—it was an engineering marvel disguised as a crime. In August 2005, a crew of thieves in Fortaleza, Brazil, pulled off one of the largest bank heists in history. By digging a tunnel stretching nearly 80 meters beneath the city, they reached the Banco Central’s vault and made off with almost $70 million in unmarked bills. No alarms. No violence. Just silence, dirt, and methodical brilliance.

In Big Brother’s Algorithm: From Telescreens to Smartphones, James G. Edwards II confronts the haunting transformation of surveillance—from Orwell’s telescreens to the algorithms now embedded in every device we own.

The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum Heist: Art, Ambition, and Unsolved Mystery (1990) offers a gripping deep dive into the events of that night and the decades-long investigation that followed.

On February 12, 1994, just as the Winter Olympics opened in Lillehammer, Norway’s most famous artwork—Edvard Munch’s The Scream—was stolen in under 60 seconds from the National Gallery in Oslo. The culprits? A group of masked men with alleged ties to a modern-day Templar revivalist movement, combining ideology, symbolism, and street-level criminal precision.

They performed for millions while secretly serving their nations. The audience never suspected the deadliest act was happening offstage. What if the most celebrated entertainers of the 20th century were also its most effective spies?

Across centuries and continents, real love stories unfolded quietly behind palace doors, in secret letters, and across battlefields unseen by history textbooks but etched in time.

In 1949, George Orwell painted a chilling portrait of a totalitarian future where Big Brother watched every move, the Ministry of Truth rewrote history, and thoughtcrime was punishable by death. Seventy-five years later, his dystopian nightmare has become our digital reality—and we handed over the keys willingly.

They broke into a bank by crawling through sewage—and emerged as legends. In 1976, under the glamorous streets of Nice, France, a group of thieves pulled off a bank robbery that defied logic and stunned the world. Led by the enigmatic Albert Spaggiari, the gang spent months tunneling through sewers and solid rock to breach the Société Générale vault during a long holiday weekend. Once inside, they worked for nearly three days—stealing millions in cash, gold, and jewels from over 400 deposit boxes. They left without a trace, except a note: “Without weapons, nor hate, nor violence.”

The vault was deemed impenetrable—until it wasn’t. On a quiet weekend in February 2003, a crew of highly skilled thieves pulled off the largest diamond heist in history. Located in Antwerp, Belgium—the epicenter of the world’s diamond trade—the target was a vault protected by motion detectors, seismic sensors, infrared heat detectors, and over a dozen layers of physical security. Still, the thieves broke in, stole more than $100 million in diamonds, gold, and jewels, and walked away clean—at least for a while. In The Antwerp Diamond Heist: The Perfect Crime (2003), true crime author James G.

In 1919 Red Summer: The Hidden History of American Terror, James G. Edwards II uncovers one of the bloodiest, most erased chapters in U.S. history. Over the course of just a few months, white mobs attacked Black communities in more than two dozen cities — leaving hundreds dead, thousands displaced, and entire neighborhoods in ashes. From the riots in Washington D.C. to the Chicago firestorm and the massacre in Elaine, Arkansas, this gripping account reveals the racial terror that reshaped America’s future — and the chilling silence that followed.

In January 1950, eleven men walked into the Brinks Armored Car Depot in Boston and pulled off what was then the largest cash heist in American history. Wearing Halloween masks and stolen uniforms, they vanished with over $2.7 million—and left behind almost no clues. For years, it looked like they had committed the perfect crime.

George Orwell's 1984 was supposed to be a warning, not an instruction manual. Yet here we are in 2025, living in a world where: AI algorithms predict and manipulate our thoughts before we think them.

In The Lufthansa Heist: The Mob’s Big Score, author James G. Edwards II delivers a gripping account of the people, the plan, and the bloody aftermath of the crime that stunned law enforcement and fed the public imagination for decades. From Jimmy Burke’s deadly leadership to Henry Hill’s later confessions, this book explores how mob discipline broke down, how investigators struggled to connect dots, and how Hollywood mythologized a heist that remains shrouded in mystery.

In an era before modern forensics and digital surveillance, a group of clever criminals orchestrated a railway heist so precise, it baffled Victorian law enforcement and captivated the public. On a summer night in 1855, as a train carried war funds from London to Folkestone, thieves swapped the shipment’s gold bars with lead and escaped undetected.

Christians generally know that God created “the heavens and the earth” and made human beings in his image. They know that “the earth is the Lord' s and the fullness thereof” — he owns his creations. They know that skilled people create and own marvelous works. But a disconnect often occurs when it comes to God' s communicable attributes of creativity and ownership and that combination' s role in human innovation, technological progress, and practical benefits from human creativity and ownership.

This engrossing history of the Revolutionary War conclusively shows that those caught up in it believed they had nothing to lose by fighting without regard for the rules of so-called “civilized warfare.” The clarion call to arms “Liberty or Death” was far more than just rhetoric. At its grimmest level, it was a conflict in which military restraint was more the exception than the rule, a struggle in which combatants believed their very existence was in question.
