Dr. Richard Kellogg, professor emeritus of psychology at Alfred State College, has authored his ninth book in a series of mystery stories for children entitled “Barry Baskerville and the Stolen Car.”
As in previous adventures, young Barry admires Sherlock Holmes and has dreams of becoming a famous detective. He wears a deerstalker hat and searches for clues with a magnifying glass. Barry likes to confound his teachers and classmates by barraging them with riddles and logic problems.
In this new mystery, Barry swings into action when someone steals a car belonging to his father. With the help of his bicycle and pet beagle, Barry tracks down the stolen vehicle and assists the Watsonville police in capturing the thief. The young detective must employ all his powers of observation and deduction to solve the case.
The book, published by Airship 27, is available on Amazon. It is fully illustrated by Gary Kato, a noted Hawaiian artist.
In addition to the Barry Baskerville series, Kellogg has authored three books about the legendary Sherlock Holmes. On top of writing, he reviews books in the science fiction and mystery genres for Paperback Parade and the New York Review of Science Fiction.
