Excerpt from Black and WhiteWalter durant was born, duly christened and led a more or less uneventful life to the age of twenty-four. Insomuch as a man may be, he was self-made. With an astuteness that was neither inherited nor absorbed he decided that he was an old-young man. This was the time that he would set about for futurity. A life of work in which mediocrity was an ulti mate goal held no appeals for him. His father had been an elusive, charming, improvident man with hosts of friends and numberless acquaintances. With him money went faster and more pleasurably than seemed sensible to this canny young man.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

There's been a break-in at Professor Purrington's laboratory and there's only one man...err boy, who can solve the case. Brinsley James, ace mystery investigator, criminal catcher and all around boy wonder is hot on the bad guy's trail. But just who is the bad guy and what does he or she want with Professor Purrington's latest experiment? It'll take every ounce of Brinsley James's five foot frame and all of his eleven years of life experience to crack this mystery. Reminiscent of the quirky tales of Roald Dahl, ItÕs a Mystery, Brinsley James is narrated in high style and features an eccentric cast of characters including a champion swimmer, a smart talking parakeet, and a licorice obsessed boy genius named The Egg who all aid Brinsley on his quest to discover the culprit behind the break-in at Professor PurringtonÕs laboratory.
