Picked this one up at an antique store for a couple bucks - nice way to spend a few hours. I've been reading these on and off since I was about ten years old, picking them up when I see them.

The guys get hired for a case, hijinks ensues, Hitchcock makes a couple appearances, Jupiter winds up smarter than everyone else etc.
It was the usual formula for these books but entertaining anyway.

Good stuff.

This series has hooked some kids in my daughter's class and that's never a bad thing. One of her classmates actually asked her to bring this book home to me as a book recommendation. Needless to say, it warmed my heart. It's a really good mystery series for upper elementary and I admit I wanted to see how it unfolded. It gave me pleasant flashbacks of watching Scooby-Doo as a child. :-)

Oliver Kalkofe macht einen tollen Erzähljob bei diesem Fall der drei Fragezeichen. Der lachende Schatten ist gruselig und man muss bis am Ende stets dabei bleiben, um nicht den Faden zu verlieren. Und das Thema hat gerade gut gepasst, nachdem ich am vorherigen Tag noch im Nordamerikanischen Native Museum war. ;)

This series was one of my first mysteries. I read all of these before I got to Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys.
