Thomas Banacek is an investigator who takes on "impossible cases" for insurance companies. In return for a finder's fee, Banacek will find a missing insured item. If a football player disappears in the middle of a play in front of thousands of fans, or an experimental rocket engine disappears in full view of a hundred witnesses at an exhibition hall... Banacek is the man to find them.
