"Never mind that car," the patrolman snarled. "It's you they want. Hop out. We'll go in the patrol car."
"You've got to stop them--"
The patrolman fingered his gun. "Security wants to talk to you, Mr. Strang. Hop out."

An interesting whodunnit about assassins targetting a young boy after the first atomic war that turns into something else. There are some interesting ideas about time travel.
