Deception on the Set NARROW ESCAPE 1 FRANK I TRUDGED FORWARD AS BAYPORT burned around me. Draped in tattered clothing, I was part of a long line of refugees who looked beaten and hopeless shuffling through the destruction. I felt the heat from flames erupting from storefront windows. Blackened and wrecked vehicles littered the street and sidewalks. The dreary procession veered around a smoldering upturned delivery truck in the middle of the boulevard. I couldn’t believe how my once-beautiful downtown Bayport had been transformed into a postapocalyptic wasteland. Just a week ago, everything was normal. Winslow Pharmacy’s huge plate-glass windows were intact instead of in shattered pieces all over the sidewalk. The Dollar Hut was full of shoppers and without flames erupting from the front doors. Sickly sweet instrumental music filled the air in Sal’s Diner rather than the buzzing of downed electrical wires. All this mayhem happened in just a short week. Right after they came to town. “Unreal,” whispered my brother, Joe, as he lumbered along next to me. His blond hair was almost black, and his face was covered in soot and ash. Like everyone else, Joe wore ripped, threadbare clothing. “I never thought I’d see Bayport like this.” “No kidding,” I murmured. I glanced around at the long line of refugees, many of whom I knew. I spotted some of my classmates and friends, including Eric Watts, Amanda Paul, and Hector Cruz. Even my chemistry teacher, Mr. Watson, wore a torn and stained blue blazer. Mrs. Sally Gertz, owner of Sal’s Diner, didn’t even look up as she passed her smoking restaurant. All of a sudden we heard a scream. Something was happening at the back of the procession. Then, another scream. This one was closer. Everyone picked up the pace. I looked back to see a commotion in the distance. The people at the end of the line were pushing forward, running from something. “You think we’ll see them from here?” asked Joe. “I don’t know,” I replied. My stomach knotted with excitement. I knew I was supposed to be frightened, but part of me wanted to see our pursuers, couldn’t wait to catch a glimpse of them. More screams, even closer. The sounds of terror were mixed with primal grunts and growls. Everyone around me moved faster, and I found I had to jog to keep up with the pack. Yet I couldn’t help glancing over my shoulder for a glimpse of the creatures terrorizing them. Terrorizing us! This time I caught flashes of them. Not so far behind us I saw biting teeth and skeletal claws swiping at the crowd. It was a good thing I looked back. “Oh!” cried Mrs. Gertz as she stumbled and fell to the ground. I spun around and pushed against the charge of frightened people. All the while the screams and growls grew louder. When I reached Mrs. Gertz, I slipped behind her to shield her from the oncoming crowd. The screams surrounded us, and the rush tripled to a panicked stampede. Grabbing her arms, I helped the woman to her feet. “Thank you, Frank,” she said with a smile. Then her eyes focused on something over my left shoulder. She shrieked and then dashed into the raging river of refugees. Something clamped onto my left shoulder. I spun around to find myself face-to-decomposing-face with . . . a zombie! Milky-white eyes stared back at me through pronounced eye sockets. Gray skin stretched over bony cheekbones and pulled away from grinning yellow teeth. Black liquid oozed over its bottom lip as its mouth opened wide, ready to take a bite. I felt another one grasp my right arm. It jerked me away just as the first undead creature lunged forward. I stumbled away from the first zombie and spun to confront the second. But luckily, it wasn’t a zombie—just Joe. “You want to be a zombie snack?” asked Joe. “No way!” I replied. I stumbled into a run as Joe and I followed the fleeing refugees. A glance back showed a horde of the undead in pursuit. They moved faster than I expected; a few almost kept pace with the escaping mass of Bayport citizens. This was amazing! Despite the chaos, I couldn’t help smiling with delight. A loud burst of static filled the air. It was followed by a tinny voice amplified over an electronic megaphone. “And . . . cut!”

Frank and Joe are extras in a movie being shot in Bayport featuring zombies that someone is trying to stop from being made. That is the entire plot in one sentence.Frank gets a little distracted by the lead actress who starred in as a kid in a show Frank used to watch. He's predictably clumsy around her and Joe does his share of good natured ribbing. That ends with a healthy dose of humor mixed with reality.There is a lot of detail about actors' make-up, masks and stunts, which are all central to the plot. Remembering one of these details enables the boys to escape the explosion seen on the front cover.The writing is good for this type of book. The alternate chapters read like two different people. The dialogue works. If the boys and some of the characters are a little too nice to be real, keep in mind these are written for a much younger demographic. Although there are a few mean people and one or two who don't come off as all that trustworthy.In contradiction to the only other reviewer, there is indeed action in this installment. The scene shown on the cover and the capture of the criminals are the two major action events, but there are others.The mystery was not as good as the book after this, "The Curse of the Ancient Emerald", and I found one of the things the brothers did to catch the criminals unexplained (no spoilers, but it had to with which disguise each wore), but it was clever. I found the movie making details interesting and think kids will as well.
Being a girl, I thought it was a little gory sometimes, but very good mystery. I didn't expect who the perpetrator was, or perpetrators, but it definitely made sense. I would recommend this book to any teenager who loves mysteries.
My 8 year old grandson loved The Hardy Boys book.
Great item
This hardy boys book is boring. It's not like the other books in the series. The way it's written I felt like I was reading nancy drew. There is practically no action in this book, just typical hardy boys action.Don't buy this book.
