About the book
Jed Shannon, a young American movie star on location in England, has received a threat against his life. When the Hardy Boys set out to investigate, they are led to a medieval mansion on the moors and are drawn into a case worthy of Sherlock Holmes--and into a conspiracy as thick as the London fog.
