All the teeth of a Swiss banker can be pulled out, one by one, but the secret of the code, the treasured key that opens access to two billion dollars, cannot be pulled out. The godfathers of two mafia clans who lost this key, and their thugs-assistants, are convinced of this. The search for the code under which fabulous riches are hidden in armored safes is the subject of Pierre Rey’s novel “Out”, in the center of which are the bloody events associated with the attempt one of the heroes, lawyer O'Broin, to embezzle money from the mafia clans Genzo Volpone and Ettore Gabelotti.
