Need a break from modern-day life? If you're like me, you're craving a simpler time. Well, here's one way of finding it: read a book from your childhood.
And considering The Mystery of Cabin Island (Book 8 in The Hardy Boys series) was first published in 1929, chances are this is a novel that came out long before you were born. If not, congratulations on exercising those nine lives. You must be a cat. Also, way to master the internet!
A lot of kittens grew up reading Hardy Boys Mysteries. Maybe you're one of them. Or maybe you're human--I don't know your life. But if you read this series as a child, this book has the nostalgia factor going for it. If you've never read a Hardy Boys Mystery, aren't you even the slightest bit curious why people are still reading them almost a century after they were written?
And of course they've got a mystery or two to solve. Stolen medals. A missing nephew. A missing butler! Non-stop action. If there's one thing the Hardy Boys do consistently, it's suck you in to the next chapter. Bet you can't read just one!
I probably don't need to talk you into revisiting the Hardy Boys. I'm sure just the mention of them has evoked a strong reaction in you, hopefully of nostalgia.
Why not go back in time with The Mystery of Cabin Island?
With two mysteries to solve, Frank and Joe must climb aboard their iceboat the Sea Gull to reach Cabin Island, where a belligerent stranger orders them off. Sabotage to the boat, danger to themselves, and a ghostly prowler do not daunt the Hardy boys in their search for Johnny Jefferson and for clues to stolen antique medals. How the teenage investigators outwit a ruthless foe and succeed in solving both mysteries makes for mounting suspense in this brisk-paced adventure.
