It’s the roaring 20s! And wedged between the fingers of every flapper, jazz musician and doctor is a cigarette. Enter Dorothy, a brilliant yet unstable student of the occult. Dorothy’s distain for the new hedonistic culture is matched only by her disgust for the filthy and odiferous habit of smoking. Armed with volumes of dark magic incantations Dorothy casts spells on ashtrays around the city, turning them into fiery incubators of death. Cigarette ashes innocuously flicked into the ashtrays are transformed into gigantic fire-breathing ash demons! Will Ned, our skeptical and logic-abiding detective hero, discover the source of this destruction and the key to ending it? You bet your ash he will!
