About the book
At first the stunts were fairly harmless--sneezing powder in the fog machine of a dance club--but now they've become more dangerous. When a historic Bayport mansion is torched, Frank and Joe are concerned. The clues lead them to a bizarre secret society . . . and their friend, Biff Hooper, is a member!
