It is 1946 and Frank O'Brian is a gumshoe in New York, in other words a Private Investigator. Having just qualified as a lawyer when the US entered WWII, he quit to work as a field agent for the Office of Strategic Services in Europe. On returning to New York he found the notion of returning to the law too tame and hung up his PI shingle.

In his first big case he is involved in murder, blackmail and double dealing. As with Henke's other work the twists and turns continue right up to the end.

This is the pilot in the Gumshoe mystery series of novellas.
