Blake McCallum

Pirates plunder, a pirate themed dinner murder mystery game.

Blake McCallum is co-owner of McCallum and Wright Detective Agency and a former police detective in the Seattle police force for 16 years.  He took early retirement due to a serious bullet wound and started the McCallum Detective Agency after the death of his wife.  Blake’s persistence in demanding answers and his dogged pursuit of justice have been rewarded with a reputation as a problem solver and an expert in the P.I. business. He often works for attorneys in civil and criminal cases and has on occasion assisted the SPD police with cold cases and criminal cases that are hard to crack.  Blake recently took on partner, Victoria Wright. Together they work as a team and intriguing cases have even taken them across international lines.

Victoria Wright

Murder in Deadwood, a cowboy Wild West dinner murder mystery game

Victoria Wright initially seemed an unlikely match with Blake McCallum when they first teamed up. However, her intuition paired with Blake’s strong-willed determination have proven to be a success. Being British, Victoria’s experience in the SIS  - the UK’s Secret Intelligence Service - also known as MI6 makes her uniquely suited to be co-owner of the agency. As an expert SIS agent she worked secretly around the world to give the UK a cyber advantage and make it a safer place.  Victoria is creative and determined, having used cutting edge technology.  As an M16 investigator she worked closely with MI5, the armed forces and law enforcement. Her stint in the US helped her make the decision to stay, after she was approached by Blake about teaming up together. Victoria has had little time for personal relationships, which is something she hopes to rectify but it is currently on the back burner.

James Gunfield

The Joker's Wild, a roaring 1920's mobsters dinner murder mystery party.

James has a sharp mind, being able to memorize and recall important information and is a great asset to McCallum and Wright.  He also works part-time as an audio/video analyst.  James considers himself to be young and free and has no immediate plans to change that, although he has a little crush on Victoria Wright.
