Book Description

Publication Date: June 26, 2001 | Age Level: 8 and up

AN ANCIENT HIDDEN TREASURE STIRS UP A CUNNING PLOT!

Teen Village International brings Frank and Joe to the south of France to rebuild a deserted town. The finished project will be a center for refugee children. But word is that the local castle is haunted -- by the centuries-old ghost of its lord, who hid a fortune in diamonds from bandits within its thick stone walls.

Spooky lights, strange noises, and several close shaves convince the Hardys that someone is trying to sabotage the project. A pair of French twins, descendants of the owner, want to save the castle from developers. Every facet of the case leads to a dead end -- and the Hardys are hunting a desperate enemy!

A Kid's Review

This review is from: The Castle Conundrum (The Hardy Boys #168) (Paperback)

My mom, dad and I have read many mystery books in both the hardy boys books and Alfred Hitchcock. But this book is defenitly one of my favorites because of its stuning plot and non-stop suspense! once you pick this book up you can't put it down because your always waiting for the next clue to figuring out who or what is behind the mystery of the stolen treasure while giving Frank and Joe a few close shaves. A soon to be classic for mystery lovers!
