Like a character in a Hitchcock movie, Dave McOmie travels the country breaking into bank vaults, cracking jewelry store safes, and decoding unbreakable codes secured deep in government facilities.

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.... What's in all these safes and vaults? Gold and silver, drugs and cash, guns and ammo, family heirlooms and X-rated paraphernalia. And a few secrets that should have remained secret. Shhhhh!

Dave McOmie

Dave McOmie is a leading member of the elite cadre engaged in opening safes and vaults for banks, insurance companies and estates. He's a rock star in his profession. He opened his first safe in the spring of 1972 and was hooked. He spent the spent the next decade learning the craft. In August of 1986 he began writing a monthly column on safecracking for The National Locksmith magazine.

In the fall of 1992, in conjunction with National Publishing, he started The National Safeman's Organization and has been its Director ever since. Over the course of the last two decades he has written 16 how-to books on the arcana of safecracking, developing and refining drill points for most of the safes and vaults that have been used in the United States. After 33 years in this crazy and obscure business, he is still having the time of his life.
