Return the Favor

By D. E. Harrison

A complex plan is executed to fire fake shots all around the city. All the time testing the police’s ability to respond. As Inspector Strong would put it, “When is the next shoe going to drop.” All officers are in every car the police have. They even use private vehicles and single drivers as much coverage as possible.
A huge part, of the city’s power go black, banks are held up and shots are fired. Was it a ploy to isolate Jones and Rage? They are off the case.
A kidnapping occurs and every means of travel to Seattle is filled with FBI agents.
The Madam in her multi-million Penthouse overlooking Seattle is unhappy, “Find those responsible for this and make sure someone stumbles into them and the money is retrurned. I want this resolved now.”

Chapter 1 Fake Shootings?

The rookie homicide Detective Janette Rage has been on the force for almost eight years. She is bright, aggressive, and dedicated to the job. She takes a fair amount of ribbing about her last name and the color of her hair. It usually goes on until they see her empty a clip of 16 rounds at 30 yards into a 3-inch circle. If that is not enough, she will crack a few ribs, and she will do it again in the gym.

Two years earlier, she had completed the Detective training course at the academy. She finished in second place, the other woman there finished 12th out of the 15 total candidates. In such a large metropolitan police force, her new duty assignment could have been one of many. She did not know until Monday after graduation her exact assignment.

Detective Rage has been with the Homicide Inspector for several years.

Patrolman Samuel Jones is in his early 30’s, six-feet two inches, a rock if you were ever to bounce into him. He is bright and a quick study. He wanted to get into the Seattle SWAT unit, but it was full and had a waiting list. The smaller cities around Seattle either had no SWAT unit or they did but their pay was poor. He decided he would pay his dues while being a Patrolman in Seattle. The ladies say he is a fine looker in his uniform.
