He was the chief art detective at Scotland Yard, England, and now solves cases on his own.  He went undercover to rescue The Scream by Edvard Munch and found it in a hiding place under a floor. He likes to go visit the paintings he has recovered when they are re-hung in museums - in their proper place.
