(1967) Eighth in the Three Investigators series, and the weakest so far. The prince of a tiny European monarchy invites the boys abroad to attend his coronation. The US government gets involved, and employs the boys as "junior agents" inside the castle. It's less a mystery than a Ruritanian adventure, and feels out of place in the series, though I probably liked it fine when I was in the target audience.

This was my #DoubleSpin for January

Getting in my farmer rebel photo, during today's 1837 Upper Canada Rebellion 👨‍🌾 reenacted for the school kids at Georgina Pioneer Village. 🍁 The Hardy Boys are popular in the little library, near the costume storage rooms. For a chance pick, I'd go for The Mystery of the Silver Spider. 🕸

rabbitprincess Aww The Secret of Wildcat Swamp! One of my faves. 6y
