Publisher's Synopsis
Four Script In Hand Plays takes you back to the golden age of radio, where actors step up to the mic, scripts in hand, to bring fast-paced, laugh-out-loud comedy to life before a live studio audience. This collection features a four-part mini-series starring none other than Dick Shamus, Fictional Detective-ace investigator of the Fictional Bureau of Investigation (F.B.I.). With a sharp wit, a nose for trouble, and a talent for getting mixed up in the strangest of cases, Shamus takes on the most infamous crimes in literature. He tangles with his old flame, Lady Macbeth, while investigating the suspicious demise of the King of Scotland; heads to Peppermint Bay to crack the case of who zotzed Humpty Dumpty; tracks down a con artist named Cinderella in a royal scam involving a not so charming Prince Charming; and squares off against a mysterious Transylvanian count with an army of beautiful, undead devotees. Packed with clever wordplay, noir-inspired wit, and literary mayhem, Four Script In Hand Plays is a hilarious homage to classic radio theater and the enduring appeal of a good detective yarn-especially when the cases are this delightfully ridiculous.
