Confessions of a Second Story Man: Junior Kripplebauer and the K & A Gang Allen M. Hornblum

From the 1950s to the 1970s, from Bar Harbor to Boca Raton, the raging crew known as the K&A Gang robbed wealthy suburban residences with assembly line skills of breaking, entering, and bagging the loot—be it rare coin collections or priceless paintings. Confessions of a Second Story Man follows the gang as they move in and out of homes, courtrooms, and prisons, and even go on the run.
