It was supposed to be impenetrable. A palatial home on London’s Billionaires’ Row, guarded round-the-clock by ex-military security, in one of the most heavily-patrolled streets in the country.

And yet, on a cold night in December 2019, a group of audacious thieves pulled off the perfect burglary, slipping inside the Kensington home of Formula 1 heiress, Tamara Ecclestone and vanishing into the night with an incredible £25 million in diamonds, cash, and jewellery. How?

In this jaw-dropping investigation, Daily Mail reporters George Odling and Andy Jehring embark on a years-long hunt for answers—knocking on doors across Europe, chasing leads in Serbia’s criminal underworld, and uncovering a story far more complex than anyone had imagined.

From luxury mansions to the shadowy depths of organised crime, Heists, Scams & Lies investigates the truth behind the biggest domestic burglary in British history to try and find out once and for all: where are Tamara Ecclestone’s missing diamonds?
