He's never been arrested or charged with a crime, because--it's his job! Safecracker reveals a shadowy world where tumblers are twirled, skeletons are exposed, and longstanding mysteries are solved. You'll ride shotgun with Dave for one crazy week, beginning with an impenetrable vault in Vegas with a midnight deadline, and ending with Prince's ultra-secure music vault in the basement of Paisley Park. In between are factual stories that read like fiction: drilling the same model ATM from the notorious episode of Breaking Bad; meeting a mystery man from the Department of Defense at a remote location to crack two high security safes; chronicling the corruption and ineptitude that dogged efforts to develop the first electronic safe lock to guard our national secrets; tackling a hundred-year-old antique bank vault in downtown Salt Lake City, and more"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a McOmie, Dave. 650 0 $a Safes. 650 0 $a Vaults (Strong rooms) 650 0 $a Burglary protection. 650 0 $a Locksmiths $z United States $v Biography. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20211102013343.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E45BD1163BA411EC87B0DC564EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
