The Sister Op

By Thumper21and15 - Posted on 30 October 2009

This is a play about a newsman who hires a female private detective to find his brother and sister-in-law and ten year old niece, who have gone missing in the German Alps. It is 1935. There will be a Canadian bent, as it is also about the closed doors of those times, so that even if our heroine gets them out, she's also got to get them INTO a safe place.

"Sister Op" is in homage to Dash Hammett's stories of private agency operatives [aka Pinkerton detectives].
