The Hardy Boys series is a classic of the kid detective genre, and my guest Beth Anne Dunphy credits the series with sparking her love of reading. We talk about Beth Anne's early book pusher tendencies, listening to audiobooks in the days before smartphone apps, and the enduring appeal of reading mystery novels where the loose ends are always resolved and the hero or heroine always prevails.
