The sweet, touching and hilariously funny novel by Swede Katharina Ingelman-Sundberg is a huge success all over the world: it has already been published in more than 20 countries, and the total circulation has exceeded a million copies. And this is not surprising - the exciting adventures of the charming old robbers Martha, Bertil, nicknamed Rake, Stina, Oscar, nicknamed the Genius and Anna-Greta, will not leave anyone indifferent!

In the nursing home, where seventy-nine-year-old Marta and her friends, life is not easy: the budget is being cut, the greedy management is ordering them to tighten their belts, and the poor old people are not even given the buns for their coffee that they love so much. One fine day, Martha, young at heart, understands: even in prison it’s better than in this almshouse! She encourages her friends to commit a crime - a small and harmless theft, only to end up behind bars and finally have a human rest in her declining years. But the heroes have no idea what they are really capable of... Thanks to their undying adventurism and endless energy, a gang of pensioners finds themselves in the center of a dizzying story that will long be remembered as the “robbery of the century.”
