Ten tough new cases for the Brown Detective Agency, such as a holdup at the First City Bank and a stolen tennis racket.

My favorite mystery solving stories, although I was never able to guess correctly when I was young. I don't know if this kind of short, figure it out mystery story appeals to today's young person, but I sure loved Encyclopedia and used to have all of the books. Thanks, Mr. Sobol, for stimualting my investigative skills! (
