Joe and Frank's winter break skiing holiday turns to horror in this Hardy Boys adventure—a fresh approach to a classic series.
Frank and Joe are thrilled to spend winter break hitting the slopes at the Granite Peak Lodge ski resort. What could be better than an action-packed week of skiing and snowboarding set against a scenic mountain landscape?

But their plans hit an unexpected bump when a blizzard blows in, closing the roads and leaving the boys stranded in the lodge with several others. Meanwhile, a series of deadly mishaps threatens to sabotage the resort—and the lives of its trapped guests.

First, a fellow vacationer nearly freezes solid when he's locked out during the raging storm. Then, the lodge's electricity is cut off, broken glass turns up in the breakfast waffles, and a resort employee is buried in a snowdrift. Who's behind these sinister acts? Is the culprit trapped in the lodge with them? The Hardys are determined to find out—before they're caught in an avalanche of danger.

      Grades 3-6 Those classic detectives, the Hardy Boys, are back again in this installment in the fast-paced adventure series. Frank and Joe Hardy, teenage sleuths, are lucky enough to vacation in snowy Vermont with their friends Cody and Chet, and they're both plenty excited to ski all day. Unfortunately, it seems like someoneor somethingis out to get not only the Hardy Boys but also all of the guests at Granite Peak Lodge. Terrible things start happening, such as a guest getting locked outside in the freezing cold and the lodge's power being cut during a snowstorm. Will Frank and Joe figure out what's happening before anyone else gets hurt? This exciting short novel is a great addition to the Hardy Boys Adventures series, which updates the classic stories for younger generations (perhaps readers whose parents were Hardy Boys fans). There are a lot of hints and red herrings before the ending, making for a truly entertaining and thrilling read and keeping it easily accessible enough for younger readers to enjoy.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2014, American Library Association.)

      A blizzard strands Frank and Joe at a ski resort that has been struggling for business. Though they just want to relax and stay away from trouble, they can't help investigating a series of suspicious mishaps that are endangering the guests. While the characters remain flat, fans of this modernized series or others in the Hardy Boys franchise won't mind.
