They were master thieves in Berlin. The Sass brothers were up to no good in the 1920s. Franz and Erich Sass stole from the rich and (according to legend) put banknotes in the mailboxes of the poor. They used their cutting torch to crack the safes of Berlin's banks. For years, the police were unable to catch them.

It is the story of Werner Gladow, the notorious Berlin gang leader who, at the age of 17, led one of the most "successful" and ruthless criminal gangs of the post-war period.

Bruno Lüdke, who was mentally disabled, is said to have brutally murdered 53 people in Berlin and throughout Germany. In 1944, he died under unexplained circumstances at the Central Institute of Forensic Medicine of the Security Police in Vienna, where numerous experiments had been performed on him. In 1991, doubts arose as to whether Lüdke could have committed a single murder at all.
