Summary "The Electronic Mind Reader: A Rick Brant Science-Adventure Story" by John Blaine is a fiction novel likely written in the mid-20th century. This adventurous tale follows Rick Brant and his friends, particularly Barby and Scotty, as they engage with science and intrigue on their private island of Spindrift. The plot hints at a clever blend of mystery and scientific ingenuity, as Rick concocts a plan involving a “Megabuck Mob” to manipulate quiz shows using hidden technology, setting the stage for adventures that intertwine with national security issues and unexpected guests. At the start of the story, readers are introduced to Rick Brant, who is lounging in his dad's library with his friends as they watch a quiz show. Inspired by the contestants’ struggles, Rick begins to brainstorm a scheme that involves utilizing radio technology and clever disguises to cheat the quiz show system. Meanwhile, the arrival of a Coast Guard officer hints at larger, potentially dangerous matters at play on the island, which immediately piques the characters’ interests. Their discussions transition from lighthearted banter about the quiz show to serious implications of espionage and intrigue as they explore the intersection of their scientific endeavors and unexpected challenges ahead.
