The four of them spend hours running from booth to booth and end the perfect day with pizza at Harper’s short-term rental apartment.

Things don’t stay so perfect, though. On the way home, Jones realizes she switched phones with Harper by accident and she is getting some really scary texts. When they show up at the apartment the next day, they find it totally destroyed, and Harper is missing.

Sad that that was the last one thoe but I loved them so I was wondering when will you guys make more?

Not the best in the “Hardy Boys Adventures” series but I still loved this book

The narrator is great and I really like the characters. I would definitely recommend this book.

Good

Not one of the best Hardy Boys books I've listened to, it was okay, pretty good story, but not as good as I was expecting after a lot of the other ones. A solid 4.5 star....

This IS THE BEST!!!!

I loved it!! it was really good!!
it was awsome!! best story ever!! yes yes

Amazing!!!!!!!

The hardy boys books are one of my favorite series ever but this book is my books of the series and I think you're going to love this book to.

Great story

I love the story and narration. I have been a Hardy Boys fan my entire life. This book was no disappointment.

always fun to listen too.

I'm 65 yes old used to get HB books from aunt growing up. still enjoy listening to them.

Not a Hardy Boys Story

Not really any story at all. Adding a character to join the boys as a detective is weak. The climax at the end included characters only shown once with no development. I have all of the books, this is the last one i will be getting.

Finished well but a painful road to get there

Let me start by saying that my son and I have listened to every book in this series and, while some are better than others, we’ve both enjoyed all of them. This one, however, we nearly turned off. The writing was good, the narrating was good, but the story line was just awful for what seemed like the first half of the book. I won’t go into detail to avoid spoiling it but I think at least an hour of the book was dedicated to returning someone’s cell phone! I appreciate detail in story writing and the details in scene descriptions and emotions were great as usual (adjusted for the age of the audience, of course) but the detail of the process/hurdles involved in getting a cell phone back to the owner was borderline unbearable. I really think the author was unimaginative and phoned it in (Pun intended) on this one at least as it relates to time spent on captivating subject matter. I really hope it was a speed bump and not a sign of things to come in the series.
