Book Summary

In The Giant Rat of Sumatra, Frank and Joe Hardy find themselves embroiled in a mystery surrounding a new musical play based on the legendary detective Sherlock Holmes. Joe joins the cast, but things take a dark turn when sabotage strikes:

  • A part of the set crashes onto the stage.

  • Death threats appear on the walls.

  • Stage props are transformed into dangerous weapons.

Determined to uncover the culprit, the Hardy brothers delve into the world of theater, facing challenges that could end the show—and their investigation—prematurely. Their quest for the truth leads them through a web of deception, putting their skills and courage to the test.
