EMERGENCY AND THE WHITE CRYSTAL is a thrilling novel that builds suspense chapter after chapter until the dramatic conclusion. The story illustrates that sometimes we cannot rely solely on calling 911 for safety. Many real heroes in the police, fire, and EMS services put their lives on the line.
The main character, Jack Winner, has just graduated from Emergency Medical Technician training school and is eager to enter the world of EMS. He lives alone in a second-floor apartment, directly above Elenora Dunn, a kind elderly woman.
Jack's girlfriend, Melanie Straight, has been his partner and lover since they were in high school. Her mother, Deidra Straight, is the head nurse of the emergency room at Jem City General Hospital, while her father, John, works in a warehouse near the waterfront docks. Although Jack and Melanie don't go out often, they always enjoy their special nights together at Alley Burger restaurant.
Jack starts his new job the next morning as an EMT on the city ambulances. He meets his co-workers. First, there is Roy the dispatcher, his new partner Mike Zaber, and Captain Jim Hawker, their operational manager. Jack breaks into the EMS as he learns more and more about life and death. Jack and Mike become a tight crew and one of the best in the city at saving lives!
One day, an illegal drug lab blew up in a horrific chemical explosion, causing a deadly warehouse fire, killing the cooks, who manufactured methamphetamine, street-named WHITE CRYSTAL. Frankie and Lasalle Sabelly, brothers who oversaw the Cartel operation, blamed the EMS personnel for not saving their people's lives. They claimed restitution against the law and EMS. Jack and Mike happened to be at the top of the mob hit list.
At the safe house, members of the East Coast cartel gathered for a meeting to plan their hits. Meanwhile, the futures of Jack and Melanie were put on hold as they became helpless victims of the cartel. They were kidnapped and ransomed for a significant sum of money, with death as the certain alternative. Detectives Glen Delayo and Brian Leman-Jem City's finest detectives-were called into action to resolve this crisis. The city was engulfed in turmoil and fear due to the mob's threats of retaliation against the authorities.
The pressing question was, Who would be next on the mob's list?
