Books like Stolen Identity by Franklin W. Dixon
In the sixteenth installment of the Hardy Boys Adventures, a mystery straight from a Sherlock Holmes tale unfolds when an original Holmes manuscript goes missing from the Bayport Museum and its pages mysteriously appear in the boys’ lockers, menus, and even the backseat of their car. Frank and Joe quickly realize they are the target of a frame‑up designed by a Moriarty‑esque antagonist. While traditional deductive tactics lead only to dead ends, the brothers team up with a group of skateboarding tweens—modeled after the Baker Street Irregulars—to track the hidden pages and uncover the true culprit before the villain pulls another clever trap. The story blends classic detective intrigue with contemporary teenage flair.
