Hardy Boys Adventures Collection Volume 4

Shadows at Predator Reef

Diving into deadly waters...

The world's largest reef exhibit is coming to the Bayport Aquarium. Frank and Joe are stoked for the unveiling of Predator Reef, a three-hundred-thousand-gallon tank that houses small sharks, rays, and thousands of colorful fish. It's also home to the aquarium's new mascot, Captain Hook - a rare and valuable, five-hundred-pound, giant sea turtle.

But instead of a big reveal, the boys get a big disappointment: Captain Hook has gone missing, along with loads of other exotic fish. Is the aquarium the target of a sinister smuggling ring? And can Frank and Joe do damage control before they're trapped in a deadly underwater maze... with no way out?



Deception on the Set

Lights! Camera! Sabotage?

It does not take much to convince Frank and Joe to be extras in the new zombie movie that's filming in Bayport. Not only do they get a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the magic that goes into making horror movies, they also get to wear freakishly realistic zombie makeup that makes them look like the walking dead!

But the horror gets a little too real when disaster hits the scene. Equipment fails left and right; a set tumbles down, nearly killing the film's famous lead actress; and a terrifying explosion threatens the cast and crew. Worst of all, Frank and Joe are targeted as possible suspects. Time for the Hardys to step up and play the role they know all too well: detectives!
