A brisk, inviting mystery that still feels fresh. Elmer's aggravations become our own as clever problem solving and dry wit meet a compact, lively plot. This restoration of Robert Arthur's classic juvenile mystery fiction offers a concise, warmly human tale set in a midcentury American world. The story blends puzzle solving suspense with sharp character sketches, delivering a satisfying detective mood in a form that feels both timeless and accessible for classroom reading assignments and casual reading alike. It's more than a mystery; it's a deft study of cunning, mischief, and the spark of young perseverance, written in a lucid, engaging voice that stands up to modern sensibilities while honouring its era. Historically significant as part of a distinguished body of Robert Arthur detective fiction and the broader trajectory of midcentury American writing for young readers, this volume serves as a bridge between classic American detective tales and contemporary appreciation. For collectors and curious readers, this edition realises the cultural treasure and archival value long latent in the text, offering a fresh entry point into Arthur's celebrated oeuvres and into the tradition of complete short stories that shaped generations. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it is restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
