Case File #2 of Icarus Investigation Murphy and Galveston are back
with the next big case from the Icarus Investigation Case Files.
With the business faltering, Murphy attempts to knock some sense
into a lovelorn Galveston to get things back on track. The PI's
finally catch a break when another investigator named Maddie
Jenkins needs their trademark, unusual services to locate her
prized lost cargo. A merchant container ship traveling from Hong
Kong to Los Angeles has vanished in the middle of the Pacific
Ocean. Has the ship simply disappeared, or did something more
sinister happen to it? The detectives cross from one side of the
earth to the other, following a breadcrumb trail of clues, as their
adventure becomes increasingly more complex and dangerous. Little
did they know, they had been drawn into the mysterious case of the
Peeking Duck.
Case File #1 of Icarus Investigation Murphy and Galveston realize
there must be more to life than their mind-numbing cubical jobs.
Over a barbeque lunch, Galveston attempts to convince his friend to
join him in a daring new career as a private investigator. With
nothing to lose, Murphy reluctantly agrees. Relying heavily on
their humorous wit and questionable tactics, the men employ a
creative approach to their investigations. For a time these methods
prove successful, until they push too far and find themselves mired
in the case of a lifetime. An explosion rocks a New England
university lab setting off a carefully orchestrated chain of
events. A small device has been stolen, a key to the entire world's
energy problems, and the power that comes with controlling it. The
fate of the device and its inventor lies with the newly
self-proclaimed private detectives. The two men, under the threat
of arrest by the FBI, begin to criss-cross the country and the
world, picking up clues to the puzzle of the missing device in
England, Mexico, and even Brazil. Dead ends seem at every turn, but
with the help of an outcast computer expert, a British spy and
former flame of Galveston's, and a new employee whom Murphy can't
seem to keep his eyes off of, the investigators unwind the case
using their unorthodox approach, berating each other at every turn.
Who is looking to control this device and its destiny? Is it the
huge multinational security firm, a devious billionaire, or a
questionable member of Congress. Murphy and Galveston must find out
why something so small is causing problems so large, because the
hunters are quickly becoming the hunted. Join the next adventure in
Peeking Duck (Case File #2 of Icarus Investigation)
