Summary: Mixed Opinion
Comment: Not sure what to say regarding this book. The scene with the accidental phone number mixup always sounded a bit far fetched to me. The cover art was poor, but yet the book was a decent read. The brothers seemed to limit their travelling somewhat in this one. Worth reading but far from the series elite. Give it a weak 3 star rating. RATED C

Rating: 2
Summary: Below Average
Comment: Mr. Hardy asks Frank And Joe to help him with his case concerning a gang that is stealing mercury. He asks them to call a shipping company in New York; however, a mistake with the area code causes them to reach the Pentagon, instead, just at the precise moment that a robbery occurs. These events lead Frank and Joe to Baltimore, where they attempt to track down the gang. The premise for this book is rather ridiculous considering that the area code for New York is 212 and that for Washington D.C. is 202. The 0 and the 1 are nowhere near each other on either a touch tone phone nor a rotary dial phone, so I don't see how a mistake like that could happen if you know the number you are calling. If your willing to accept this and just read the book, it's not that bad. The mystery is fairly well paced and there is quite a bit of action. The ending is somewhat silly, but mostly the book isn't that disappointing.

Rating: 5
Summary: The Bombay Boomerang (Hardy Boys, No 49)
Comment: I really enjoyed reading this book because the story makes you think about what is happening to the boys and figure out what is really happening. As you read the book, you discover many clues that you have to use to act like a detective and try to solve the mystery. You also have to figure out what the criminals are doing and planning. You really have to learn to think like a detective to slove the mystery.
