Based on rich factual material, the author created a criminal chronicle of the USSR, including both widely known criminal cases and those that did not receive public attention: the robbery of the Patriarch's sacristy and the Museum of Fine Arts, the murder of a deputy of the Supreme Council and the explosion in the Mausoleum, the robbery of the Yerevan bank and the murder of a popular film actor.

Of particular interest are the pages that tell about the formation of the MUR and the formation of the caste of thieves in law. Among the antiheroes of this book are the famous robbers Yakov Koshelkov and Lenka Panteleev, the false colonel Pavlenko and the bandit Mitin, the currency dealer Rokotov and the maniac Ionesyan, the counterfeiter Baranov and the bandit brothers Tolstopiatov.

The book was previously published under the title "Bandits of the Times of Socialism".
