Death is just around the corner...when your name is Shell Scott and you're a private detective with a nose for trouble and an eye for dames. That's me all over.

The action began in a high-class mortuary - the kind where you can die now and pay later. The trail got warmer over at the cemetery, and things really heated up when the mob decided to make me a permanent resident.

Me, Shell Scott, who never even so much as squashed a bug that didn't have it coming.
