I got this book for my 7 year old daughter who loves reading the Hardy Boys mysteries. The book was interesting, but what was disturbing to me was the detailed chapter on drug use and terminology. I understand that such knowledge is necessary for detectives, but the target audience seems a little young to know all the words for LSD and the slang for multiple drug terms. I thought my daughter wasn't ready for what was discussed in this book. I wish there was a chapter heading listing included in the summary of this book so I would have known what was included. I returned the book.

Well, they published a series of bland stories with bland characters and cliched plots, might as well bank on that with a book that tells you how to be that bland and predictable. Actually, The Hardy Boys Detective Handbook is an interesting read and if you ever wanted an up-to-date manual on how criminal investigations were conducted 30 years ago then this is the book for you. For nostalgia freaks this book will be a bonanza of delight and all those who are in close proximity when they have this book in their possession may be in for a contact high. Fans of the series will definitely enjoy this one as Frank W. Dixon, a pseudonymn for about a thousand ghostwriters, and a retired FBI agent (I forget his name) give you tips on how to be just like those nice, clean cut boys who somehow manage to get involved in criminal investigations.
