Spam Hummer, P.I.

Along the line of the old detective thrillers of the 1940s through 1960s, Spam Hummer lives the life of a private-eye. With his girl Friday, Cassidy, his buddy on the police force, Dave Frisco, and a mentor who owns Hannity's Bar, Spam takes on the cases that wander through the doorway of his one room office. Originally created as a single short story, Spam's character grew into a series of stories until the number of stories justified combining them into one consolidted work. Spam Hummer, P.I., takes the reader back to the days when detective stories were voiced over the radio and paperback books detailing their adventures could be purchased for 25 cents. After writing eighteen stories about Spam and his friends, the author, Dan Boutwell, felt they needed to be shared with the rest of the world, resulting in the compilation of this series of “capers”, each one being introduced by an editor who fills the roll of the speak-over narrator of the old television series. So, let me introduce to you, wiithin the pages of this work, Spam Hummer, P.I.
