In the fifth adventure of Robert Arthur's classic mystery series, Jupiter, Pete, and Bob are in hot pursuit of a magnificent gold belt, studded with jewels, which once belonged to an ancient line of Japanese emperors.
When it is stolen from under their noses at the Peterson Museum, the Three Investigators are determined to find it - partly to help Taro Togati, a Japanese boy whose father will be disgraced if they don't. Soon they're tangling with garden gnomes, gymnasts, and a gang of ruthless criminals!
By turns intriguing, funny, and perplexing, The Mystery of the Vanishing Treasure promises to please not only the existing fan base of The Three Investigators series but a whole new generation of readers who will find in its pages three very different boys whose imagination, courage, and intelligence can remind us that curiosity, perseverance, and rational inquiry are just as vital as friendship and cooperation.
At the end of each Three Investigators book published by Hollow Tree Press are notes written by Robert Arthur's daughter and son-in-law, exploring three subjects connected to the story - in this case, Little People, Bank Robbers, and Honor - and young readers may want to use these notes as guidelines for further investigation. After all, the motto of The Three Investigators is "We Investigate Anything," and their trademark is "???" - three question marks, taken together.
On the 60th anniversary of the creation of The Three Investigators series, the first-ever English-language e-book editions of Robert Arthur's novels, as well as the first new English-language print editions in over twenty-five years, stand ready to delight a whole new audience. Be sure to seek out all ten titles!
