And then one day Watson comes home from school to find both his house and father--vanished! With the help of some eccentric Captain Conquer fans, including the man with forty pounds of brains in his nose, Watson sets out to find his father--and not so incidentally, to save the world from an alien invasion.

Book Description
Rodney Congruent (son of Watson Congruent of "The Return of Captain Conquer" fame) fears he will never have the sort of adventures his parents had. Then he receives an envelope full of transporting glitter, and ends up on an alien spaceship. The aliens, Grubber and Drum, say that they're searching for new exhibits for The Planetoid of Amazement, although Rodney is skeptical of their motives. Then he's kidnapped by Mara and Grits, two more creatures who are willing to do just about anything to get Rodney to tell them the location of the Legendary Treasure Planet (which he knows nothing about). The new aliens are members of the Slignathi, the most evil race in the galaxy. Will Grubber and Drum help Rodney save the Earth--or will they turn out to be Slignathi themselves! A fun-filled science fiction adventure!

Book Description
9 great reads for a lonely night of thrills and chills! In Sydney J. Bounds's "The Book Miser" has detective Josephine "Jo" Royal trying to thwart an unscrupulous book collector who's taken advantage of an innocent seller. In "The Purple Glove Murders," by Mary Wickizer Burgess, attorney Gail Brevard is asked to solve a killing that appears to be linked to another murder from decades earlier. In Victor Cilinca's "Eggs," a multi-millionaire pasta company executive becomes the target of a scam. In "The Case of the Telbury Halt Ghost," by Ernest Dudley, well-known detective Doctor Morelle must unravel the mystery behind the apparent haunting of a rural railway station. "The Adventure of the Forgotten Umbrella," by Mel Gilden, is one of those tales of Sherlock Holmes mentioned—but never actually related—by Doctor Watson. Michael Hemmingson tells the story of an unfortunate young man on the make who's quite simply overwhelmed by his three "Vivacious Vixens!" Francis Jarman demonstrates, "In the Light of What Happened," that poking around in old Indian temples can have unforeseen consequences! James B. Johnson's "Flankspeed" is one of the most unusual mysteries ever encountered by this editor—and also one of the best. Arlette Lees, a rising star of the noir mystery magazine scene, contributes "Blood Bayou," one of those backwater places that you probably want to avoid on your next little escape from the law.
