The adventures of proud Polish-American freelance insurance investigator Thomas Banacek.

Thomas Banacek is a clever and well-to-do freelance insurance investigator living in Boston. He makes good money by solving the most intricate and unusual mysteries, and is very proud of his Polish heritage. His contacts include his street-smart chauffeur Jay and British bookstore owner Felix.—Marty McKee <[email protected]>

Thomas Banacek is a Boston Brahmin who maintains his lifestyle by recovering missing items, that were stolen in an extraordinary or peculiar manner, for insurance companies for 10% of their insured value. He is assisted by his friend Felix. He is also not liked by Henry Dewitt, the insurance company representative who doesn't like being beholden to him. During the second season, he had a rival-love interest in Carlie Kirkland, an insurance investigator who works for DeWitt.—<[email protected]>
