MAXIMUM CHALLENGE (HARDY BOYS 132): MAXIMUM CHALLENGE (The Hardy Boys)

by Franklin W. Dixon

FRANK AND JOE BATTLE SLIME AND CRIME...IN PRIME TIME! Maximum Challenge, TV's hottest game show, has come to Bayport, and the Hardys have put together a team to take on the champions. It's a battle of brute strength and brain power, and Frank and Joe are about to be tested to the max. Floyd "Rack" Rackham, their top opponent, hates to lose...and loves to slaughter his adversaries. But show biz gives way to the business of crime when Bayport is hit by a string of daredevil burglaries. Then the Hardys discover that each break-in required the exact skills possessed by a Maximum Challenge champ. For Frank and Joe, beating the burglars at their own game is the challenge of a lifetime -- which could turn into a fight to the death!
