The Dangers of Gasoline

The discovery of gasoline flowing from the baptismal font of St. Reba’s Church in Detroit started an ominous chain of events. Unbeknown to the FBI and other government representatives who came in droves to confirm the veracity of the event, Government Energy Commissioner Kyle Hampter had a secured hotline to Lester King, the owner of East and West Coast Global Oil Industries. Lester King did not take the news kindly. He knew that it was a problem that had to be nipped in the bud.

Lester King’s dilemma

A scientific breakthrough that can change water into gasoline will help make the US and other countries independent of their reliance on foreign oil. 

It could bring down the price of oil in the world market to levels that have not been plumbed before. Lester King realized that it could ruin his business and that of oil-producing countries like the Saudi oil cartel. He instructed Kyle Hampter to be his mole inside the government to find out who was responsible for finding the formula to convert water to gasoline. A few days later, Hampter reported to King that a Vietnam war hero, Captain Oley Washington Jr., who had amnesia and was missing for several years has been found. Captain Washington was directly linked to St. Reba.

A Conspiracy That Goes a Long Way

It was not only Lester King that was wary of the new discovery. High up in the organization is his friend and leader of the Saudi Arabian Royal Oil Empire, King Hassmen Tavio. If the US government gets its hand on the material that can transform water into gasoline, it would stop buying Saudi oil which would be a catastrophic event. It was vital to him that it should be prevented at all costs.

Carl Kegerreis and his Handiwork

Sinister minds such as that of Lester King and King Hassmen Tavio are at the center of the struggle in Carl Kegerreis’ I Wish I Had Those Gasoline Pellets. Heroes, like the character Oley Washington Jr. who lost his memory, are up to the task to foil their evil designs. The author, Carl Kegerreis, drew parallels from his wife’s battle with Alzheimer’s disease when he made up the character of the long-suffering Captain Oley Washington. This exciting book is his tribute to the memory of his wife and to fund research about Alzheimer’s disease.
