Summary

A buried secret becomes a big problem for Frank and Joe in the twenty-fifth book in the thrilling Hardy Boys Adventures series.

Frank and Joe are on a history club trip to New York City, and their first stop is the Prohibition Museum where they’ll hear about how smugglers building getaway vehicles led to the rise of modern stock car racing. During a tour of damp escape tunnels beneath the museum, Frank slips and breaks a wall panel with his elbow, revealing a hidden compartment containing documents from the 1920s!

The documents reveal that The Gilded Top Hat—the speakeasy which later became the Prohibition Museum—wasn’t actually owned by the Faccini brothers who were arrested for its bootlegging operations. The museum curator is eager to investigate this lead into the speakeasy’s history, and never ones to turn down a good case, Frank and Joe volunteer to help out. But before long, someone steals the documents and sends the boys warnings to stop digging into the past. Can Frank and Joe uncover the truth before it’s buried for another hundred years—and the boys along with it?

Bad narrator but good story

The story is good but the narrator was very bad but after a while I was able to actually listen to the book with some annoyance

Can we please have Tim Gregory back

No offense to Adam Verner but he isn’t the person to do this. Tim Gregory kept the books exiting and funny but Adam Verner makes them boring and cringy.

Wrong narrator listed

Warning- if you like the narration of Tim Gregory, be aware that he is NOT doing the voices for this latest audiobook. Adam Verner is reading this latest story. Audiobooks needs to catch this error. I am an adult Hardy Boys fan and really like Tim Gregory's ability to give unique voices to a diverse cast of characters and make you feel you are "in the story". Adam Verner has a long list of narrated books, but I don't get the same depth of feeling I get from Tim Gregory.

NOT NARRATED BY TIM GREGORY

I bought this one because it said it was narrated by Tim Gregory- it is not. This narrator is as exciting to listen to as watching paint dry. The story was actually pretty good but I almost didn't finish because the narration got on my nerves so. I miss Tim Gregory!

Great book

Great book!

Only negative think I would say is that the narrator wasn’t as good as he generally is but other than that great book
