Mean Streets

The story opens about a year after I Spy, in the summer of 1928; Trey – aka T Drummond MacIntyre III – is staying with his Gramps on the Circle M ranch in Topeka, Kansas and while it’s fun it’s also quiet with a capital Q. Until, early one morning, Trey meets some mysterious strangers in a very fancy white Buick Monarch on the back roads…

It isn’t long before Trey finds himself in the middle of a real case, involved in high-speed car chases, shoot-outs with Chicago mobsters and skin-of-the-teeth rescue missions – lucky, then, that he’s read How To Become A Private Eye In 10 Easy Lessons, by Austin J Randall! It’s a roller-coaster ride, during which Trey meets a colourful, and sometimes dangerous cast of characters, including Fred and Velma Pisbo, Shady Jones, Dewey McGuigan, Tony Burrell and Mario Andrusa.

Welcome to 1928, where the west is as wild as ever – only now it’s the guys in sharp suits with Tommy Guns doing the talking.
