Read more Better than You'd Expect!, By Scott Thiel (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews This review is from: The Yellow Feather Mystery (Hardy Boys, Book 33) (Hardcover) Published in 1953 - This was one of the first books painted by Ruddi Nappi.

Read more An Interesting Mystery, By A Customer This review is from: The Yellow Feather Mystery (Hardy Boys, Book 33) (Hardcover) This review concerns the original 1953 edition as well as the revised 1971 edition, which is a shortened version of the original. Greg Woodson, the grandson of the recently deceased owner of Woodson Academy, Mr. Hardy's old school, asks Frank and Joe to locate his grandfather's missing will which would prove that Greg is the rightful heir to the academy. However, a crook, who uses a yellow feather as his symbol is trying to stop them. Frank and Joe must find out who or what the Yellow Feather really is. This mystery reminded me of a Nancy Drew mystery, although, for those that aren't a fan of that series, don't let that discourage you from reading this book because it was actually rather good, despite having only one criminal. The book was well written and had a fair bit of action. I think most Hardy Boys fans would enjoy this one. |
