Elliott Lewis wrote the Bennett series, seven comic mysteries published between 1980 and 1983. The books follow a character named Bennett through humorous situations that play on familiar phrases — Two Heads Are Better, Dirty Linen, People in Glass Houses, Double Trouble, Bennett’s World, Here Today Dead Tomorrow, and Death and the Single Girl.
The rapid publication of all seven books in just four years suggests an author working at full creative speed, producing a distinctive blend of mystery and humor that made the most of its punning titles and light-hearted approach to crime fiction.
