Women's Clothing Case

By D. E. Harrison

Patrolman Rage is nearing five years on the force. What does she want, Sergeant’s strips or a Detective’s shield? A woman Lieutenant is offering options.
The FBI is hunting bank robbers heading toward Seattle. Rage’s opinion is they will never catch them. She offers where they might go. The FBI thinks she is reading their play book. She meets the new FBI Director for Seattle, Ted McClearly.
Seattle Robbery has someone stealing lady’s dresses by the hundreds. Rage visits a clothing store and feels they could be next. As a patrolman she tells her Sergeant, but he will not pass it up the line as the next possible robbery. The store loses hundreds of dresses. Rage is permitted to talk with robbery directly about another possible robbery, but they wait too long, and another store is robbed. The Chief of Police is not happy they had them twice and did nothing. But the robberies stop after 15,000 dresses are taken.
The dresses are processed, and most are shipped to China. What is left of the dresses finds its way to a sheik.
The ‘Madam’ running the venture buys a Boeing 757 and a penthouse in Seattle with a credit card. She moves her operation to Seattle. She now has three assistants; Solviegn, Briallen, My-Ling.

Chapter 1 The Friendly Talk

In the female’s locker room at police headquarters patrolman Rage is coming off patrol. She is surprised to find one of the very few female line lieutenant waiting for her at her locker.

Rage has been a patrolman for almost five years and still carries the Colt 45. The Major of the patrol force is still carrying the police six shot special. But that is slowly changing after the incident at the Awards Ceremony. See the ‘13th Street Gang’ case file.

Patrolman Rage has been considering this for some time. She has options as she nears her 5th year in the dept. Unknown to Rage the Major over the patrolmen has considered her for a single squad car. He could never sell it upstairs. But he has no doubt she could handle it.

Lieutenant James leans across her desk, "We do have a few female line officers, but we have even fewer female detectives. It is seldom done but there is nothing in the regs that says you must have your strips to become a detective. If you pass the academy you become a detective. I have read your complete jacket. While you have little line command experience that is again not absolute necessary to get
