The Truth
Almost everything the average homeowner believes about a break-in comes from television. Here is what the men who did it say when somebody asks them.
| What people picture | The television version | What actually happens |
|---|---|---|
| It happens at night | A figure in the dark, two in the morning | Daylight, on a weekday, while you are at work |
| He picks the lock | Skill, tools, patience | He knocks first, to find out if you are home |
| The alarm sign is enough | The sticker does the work | Noise, a dog, and signs of life do the work |
| Cameras stop it | You watch it, so it does not happen | Footage tells you what already happened |
| It takes him a long time | An hour going through the house | Inside in under a minute, gone in under ten |
Drawn from thirty-one years on the job, plus the two burglar studies Curtis cites on the channel: the KGW Portland survey of eighty-six convicted burglars, and the University of North Carolina at Charlotte study of four hundred and twenty-two of them.

From the Book
Every chapter turns on one sentence. These are three of them, straight out of the book.
"Five dollars at the decision point beats five thousand at the crime point."
Chapter 1 · The Five-Dollar Budget"A door is only as strong as the sentence you say through it."
Chapter 5 · What You Say Through a Closed Door"Ask one question of any system you're sold: what does it do while nobody answers a phone?"
Chapter 19 · Alarm Contracts and the Response-Time Math
Who Wrote This
Curtis Hayes started night shift at a shopping mall in 1988. Then came years in retail loss prevention, reading people on camera. He finished his career running the front desk and the camera room of a residential high-rise.
He is retired now, and he teaches instead. He wrote this down because the same few things kept working for thirty-one years, and nobody had put them in one place for an ordinary homeowner.
"The safest houses aren't the loudest ones. They're the ones that give nothing away."

Questions
No. The videos take one idea at a time, in whatever order the week suggested. The books are the whole round in order, with a checklist at the end of every part, and most of the material has never been on the channel.
It is for a homeowner who wants to do this themselves, cheaply, without signing a contract. It is not written for security professionals, and it is not a book about weapons or about confronting anybody. If what you want is a system installed and monitored for you, this is not that book.
Yes. Most of the fixes are a screwdriver and ten minutes. Where a job genuinely needs a tradesman, the book says so instead of pretending otherwise.
No, and Curtis does not sell one. There is a whole chapter on the response time math, so you can work out for yourself whether a contract is worth it where you live.
Most are a few dollars. The book prints the price next to every one, so you can pick what fits your budget rather than being sold a package. A fair number cost nothing at all beyond an hour of your evening.
It is a file that opens on any phone, tablet, or computer, and it can also be printed on paper. It comes straight to your email within a minute of paying, and it is yours to keep. There is nothing to log into.
No, and anybody who tells you otherwise is selling you something. Nothing makes a house untouchable. What these methods do is cost an intruder time, make noise he cannot afford, and tell him a lie about what he is up against, so he moves along to an easier house.

Before you go
Most break-ins happen in daylight, on a weekday, to a house that told a stranger nobody was home. This book is thirty-one years of learning what a house says, and how to make it stop saying it.
