New Delhi, June 27 Celebrated British actor Michael Caine will host six-part series which tells the stories of remarkable heists and extraordinary robberies from around the world - as remembered by the masterminds, detectives, victims, journalists and witnesses that lived through them.

"Heist With Michael Caine" will be available on Audible, as part of a new Audible Original Podcast and will be available to download exclusively at www.audible.in from July 7.

From the largest bank burglary in American history, to the world's most audacious book heist, Heist With Michael Caine travels to America, Australia, Stockholm, Antwerp and everywhere in-between to tell true stories that have inspired some of Hollywood's most-famous heist films.

Episode 1: Underneath Diamond Town - One of the biggest diamond robberies in history, a massive haul of diamonds and jewels from an "impregnable" vault in the world's diamond capital - Antwerp, Belgium. How did they get in - and out - without raising any alarm, and what was the almost impossibly lucky break that led the diamond detectives to crack the case?

Episode 2: The Transylvania Book Heist - A rare book heist at Transylvania University, Kentucky. We hear from the victim, the detective, and one of the robbers - a student who got in too deep.

Episode 3: You Gotta Have Balls - The United California Bank of 1972 was the largest bank burglary in American history. A classic game of cat-and-mouse between the mastermind who planned it all and the FBI agents who want to put him away.

Episode 4: All The Money In Stockholm - In 2009, a gang of criminals steal a helicopter and make a dramatic landing on the roof of cash depository in Stockholm. This daring Hollywood-style heist is the most audacious smash-and-grab robbery in Swedish history.

Episode 5: The Multimillion-Dollar Fax - How a gang of thieves stole $150 million from an Australian government fund without ever stepping foot inside a bank.

Episode 6: Heist - The Inside Story - Series creator Alexis Conran joins Michael to take us on a journey through some of the social and security implications that the stories in this series have thrown up.
