'Larry Kent is a crime investigator. As a newspaperman in New York, he becomes interested in crime detection and sets up in business in Australia. He has a nose for danger and a habit of playing hunches. A light touch to offset the serious theme of the plays is his eye for a pretty figure, and a favourite occupation of, as he puts it, "Watching the blondes go by" (Australian Radio Series 1930s - 1970s, p.99)
