            Actually, the cover of this novel is not interesting. I chose this novel because I read the epilogue from this novel that about mystery and one of my favorite novels is about mystery. From the epilogue, I know that that this novel told about a president of United States who was kidnapped by someone. I’m so curious with the story than I started read this novel.
            In this novel there were two main characters, Frank Hardy (young detective, one of Hardy boys, Joe’s brother) and Joe Hardy (young detective, one of hardy boys, Frank’s brother). And also there were some characters in this novel, like Mr. Feton Hardy (Frank and Joe’s father, a famous detective), Chet (Frank and Joe’s friend), Zandro (Magician, President kidnapper), Manuel (Magician, Zandro’s rival), Happy Hortel (Zandro’s assistant), Dr. Dualiver (Zandro’s brother and his assistant).

The best part in this novel that when Joe, Chet and Feton try to help the president and Frank from the kidnapper. The kidnapper was Mr. Zandro and he asked a ransom billion dollar. So, Feton Hardy made a discussion with Zandro and asked more time to look for the money. While Feton and Zandro had discussion Joe and Chet entered secretly the room where president and Frank arrested. He waited for a minute until came Manuel, he tried to divert Zandro’s attention with her magic by making himself invisible. Suddenly puff of smoke rising in the room and Feton with the police entered the room catching for the kidnapper. After that, Feton investigate Zandro and actually Dr. Dualiver helped his brother to kidnap the president.
            I have learned from this novel, that we have to be careful with everyone around us and don’t exactly believe with them because something bad can happen to someone everywhere and everytime.
