Genre: Detective Noir/Sci-fi
| Private Investigator Sam Blackwell is losing employees
almost as fast as clients. It appears he's gotten a break when an eccentric scientist pays him eccessively to pick up his
daughter, Kia, from an insane asylum. A simple job becomes dangerous and complex when the cabal that funded Professor
Storm's research discovers that Kia is the key to locating the time machine hidden by the brilliant physicist before
he erased his short-term memory.
Sam and Kia escape to the past, trying to stay one step ahead of the bad guys and the police. With each leap between the present and 1947 they unravel more of the mystery of the location of the time machine. But when Sam's loyal secretary is kidnapped he's forced to make a desperate choice that my doom them all for an eternity. With clever dialogue and memorable characters, The Time Detective draws its inspiration from the detective noir films of the 1930s and 40s, but combines this with a modern flair and light humour. |
