From BoardGameGeek

As the wealthy flaunt their valuables, with their infinite money and privilege, the less fortunate of us are left to scheme on how to skim a bit off the top. You are not wealthy. You call your esteemed profession: "Wealth Redistribution" or, in layperson's terms - burglary, ah - but burglary is such a harsh word - pinching, merely, and you're darn good at it. Unfortunately, so are your "friends". Each turn, one player (burglar) becomes "The Mastermind", planning their perfect, infallible Heist. In the meantime, the other burglars in town have been busy trying to guess where the break-in will be. If The Mastermind manages to go alone, they will take all valuables in that location for themselves, but if the other burglars guess correctly, and show up in the right place, they will be able to pinch some Valuables from The Mastermind's Heist! The player who steals and sells the most Valuables, and hence "Redistributes" the most wealth is the winner. -description from the publisher
