About the Book

In what might be a publishing first, a teen reader/adult mystery story has been rewritten specifically for young readers, as young as 3rd grade for some advanced readers. It may be read by children with or without help, and can be thoroughly enjoyed as a read-along where a parent is reading the original version of the book ("Brains Benton: The Case of The Insane Woman Down Memory Lane") at the same time. Brains and his best friend Jimmy have started a detective agency to take on cases the police just won't take seriously. And, being not-quite-teens themselves, the police do not take them seriously either. But they have a few early successes and it is only when Jimmy's older sister, Ann, asks them to look in on a favorite old teacher of hers who had been fired and sent to a mental institution, that the real mystery begins. Can it really be true that aliens from outer space are out to get her? What the boys learn for certain is that sometimes the best way into a crazy person's house is by climbing up a wall, and that water in a basement isn't at all a good thing! PARENTS NOTE: Brains and Jimmy are very good role models for children showing bravery, intelligence, and a mature attitude toward the main character and her daughter. This book has been rewritten in third person rather than the fist person narrative of the original book to make it easier for younger readers to follow along.
About the Author: Thomas Hudson is probably best known for his Tom Swift stories-both a series of new novels and numerous collections of novellas and short stories-all of which are available as both paperbound books as well as electronic (Kindle, NOOK, etc) versions. He lives in the great Pacific Northwest, can easily brave the cool and wet weather that comes with living up there, and enjoys the tremendous amount of green that the rain brings. His house is within sight of four major mountains. He is married and has been happily so for nearly 35 years to just one woman who tolerates his constant tapping away at the keyboard as he writes and writes and writes. This is his first foray into the world of Brains Benton but will not be his last one. Also, one day he will actually finish the stage play he has been trying to complete for over three decades and his autobiography that has been going on for three years and for some reason gets longer the longer he takes to finish it. (Good things take time?)
