Officer 666

by Barton Wood Currie

Travers Gladwin, a bored and wealthy businessman's son, finds his life unexpectedly spiced up when he learns of a planned burglary of his home. Instead of thwarting the thief, Travers decides to play a daring game. He borrows a police uniform and poses as an officer, eager to confront the burglar. However, the situation spirals into chaos as the burglar arrives and attempts to pass himself off as Travers. Complicating matters further, the burglar's girlfriend arrives, believing her lover to be the wealthy young man. As mistaken identities and hilarious encounters unfold, Travers finds himself caught in a web of his own making, facing more than just a simple robbery.
