Ambulance Made Two Trips
Big Jake Connors runs Willow Creek with violence, bribes, and fear. Every business in town has bent to his will, every one except Joe Carboy's dry cleaning shop, that is. When Carboy turns down the gangsters' "protection" money, Detective Sergeant Fitzgerald braces for the worst. Instead, something impossible happens. People who threaten Carboy meet strange fates. Routes that should be safe become lethal. The rules that govern Jake Connors' world suddenly stop applying, and nobody can figure out why. Fitzgerald watches the town's tyrant unravel, but the truth behind Carboy's inexplicable immunity might be more dangerous than the mob ever was. Murray Leinster weaves a propulsive crime story with a mind-bending science fiction premise: what happens when an ordinary man discovers he has something far more powerful than the gangsters ever imagined?
