Passport Games will release Ace Detective, by the designer of Arkham Horror, in June.  The noir detective card game by Richard Launius will feature a card-driven storytelling mechanic.  The setting is pre-war 1941; players who play their cards right and tell their story will be rewarded the Plot Points needed to place clues on the suspects of the crime.  The goal is to become the true Ace Detective.

The game will feature original artwork from Black Mask Magazine, plus art by C. Romanos and J. Semionova.  MSRP is $40.
