1948. 

Harry Truman is president. The Marshall Plan is about to save Europe. Israel declares its independence and Ed Sullivan has just become Toast of the Town.
But, for the staff of the Silver Detective Agency, 1948 may be the year they all look for another job, unless they can find a client who will save their business and restore their once glowing reputation.
Then, in walks the kind of client they've dreamed about or, at least, the men. Blonde, flowing locks. Porcelain skin. Ruby red lips. A body to die for. Carolyn Hambrick's visit brings hope, as well as danger. 
Frank Magruder and the Vermin Gang interrupt her visit and decide to permanently shutter the Silver Detective Agency with a hail of bullets.
Fortunately, famed explorer Lassiter Shane arrives in the nick of time. Taking command of the situation, Shane, together with the Silver detectives, his intrepid World Travelers and the brave men and women of the Light City Police Department, will face mad scientists, machine-gun toting Metal Men, remote-controlled drones, genetically-engineered monsters, deadly androids, zombies and the dreaded Flying Horror Corps. 
But, can even Shane and his allies stop an enemy armed with futuristic weapons and technology, hell-bent on succeeding where their mentors - Hitler, Mussolini and Tojo - failed?
The odds are stacked against him, but when you're Lassiter Shane, long odds and certain death are par for the course.
