    Ken Bissell

    Ken Bissell is a hard-bitten detective who calls everyone “kid” and chain-smokes cigars. His eyes are constantly lit as if by sunlight peeking through a window shade. He has a bachelor’s degree in Pithiness from the School of Hard Knocks and a mean left hook you really gotta watch out for. At night, he enjoys eating macaroni and cheese.
