Goodreads asked E.A. Allen:

What are you currently working on?

E.A. Allen I am writing the first of what will be a new series of mysteries for Young Readers (10-18 years), featuring Percy St.-John. Percy's debut in three of my Montclaire Weekend Mysteries -- "The Twice-Killed Man," "Priceless," and "What to Do About Percy,' met with such approval among my readers that I have decided his story deserves to be told. Percy is a 13 year old genius safe-cracker (a "cracksman" in the Edwardian English) who has a natural gift for stealing things. His talents are turned to the good, when he is absorbed into the "control" of the French Intelligence Service (the Deuxieme Bureau) and assigned to do "useful staling."
