Asimov wrote a number of non-sci-fi mysteries that are pretty good. If you can instill Asimov fandom that might be a back door to sci-fi.
Indeed. The Black Widowers and the Union Club mysteries are puzzle-like short stories, quite age-apprioprate. The novels The Death Dealers and Murder at the ABA are probably better read a few years later.
Seconded, I also enjoyed the Black Widowers, I remember some pretty clever bits.
