What Happens When You Dial 999
1 pp · non-fiction

When a witness named Bob Jones spots a smash-and-grab jewellery raid on a London street, he does what any alert citizen should do—dials 999 and sets an extraordinary chain of events in motion. This 1952 non-fiction account follows the telephone call through Scotland Yard's Operations Room, where dispatchers coordinate with the Flying Squad's patrol cars via radio to intercept the thieves before they vanish into the city. It's a tense glimpse at the real machinery of crime prevention, from the moment the alarm is raised to the moment the bandits are cornered and arrested.
