In “Get a Clue,” stockholder in Atlas Inc., are guests at the specially convened Atlas Inc. stockholders meeting, where the founder and CEO Simon Lively is expected to reveal the reasons behind the sudden session. Many outside experts are speculating that Lively plans to address the recent secret advances at Atlas Robotics. But there are rumblings of discontent among many stockholders, including former employees and family members! Among those expected or unexpectedly to attend are Professor Prune, a former Atlas Robotics inventor extraordinaire who’s best friend is now Mr. Jack Daniel; Mrs. Peahen, Lively’s ex-wife who bares her claws at him but chirps sweet nothings to others; Col. Dijon, the world traveler and deep-sea treasure hunter who has spread himself thin financially but has always been able to get out of a jam; Mr. Mauve Green, the young master of Wall Street takeovers, is rumored to plan a “discreet appearance”; Rose Redd, who needs little introduction – her name says it all – she’s devilishly hot! Also, Miss Blanc, Simon’s French maid, will be in attendance to attend to Lively and his guests.
In “Hammer Spade,” the 1940s throwback to Humphrey Bogart in The Maltese Falcon has a dark shadow hanging over his past that haunts him to this day.
Included in that shady past is Beryl Goldwater, a tough woman who's climbed the ladder of success all the way to the U.S. Senate. Now Hammer finds himself caught between a rock and a Steel case -- the murder case of one, Stanislaus Steel, a mountain of a man who charmed his way from handling scary explosives to a safe and secure marriage to the wealthy heiress Parker Poise.
As part of hammer's sleuthing, he confronts Steel's very personal assistant, Artemis Hunter, and Steel's playboy brother-in-law, Standish Poise. Get ready to help Hammer bring down the hammer on the guilty in "Hammer Spade & The Steel Murder."
Next April, Hunt Mysteries will celebrate 20 years of doing shows throughout Utah and the Mountain West.
