Donovan Ingram’s Reviews > The Hardy Boys #1: The Tower Treasure > Status Update

The point of view of this book is third person omniscient. The narrator knows the feelings of every character. The narrator will sometimes say how a character feels about something when a topic is brought up. They also know what the characters are thinking, the narrator won't quote thoughts, but they say what a character is thinking about sometimes.

The setting of The Tower Treasure is Bayport in 1927. The Hardy boys live with their parents and their dad is a skilled detective. They travel all across Bayport to catch a criminal who stole their friend Chet's car.

This book is a realistic fiction mystery. I can tell because the book is about "the Hardy boys" who are two boys who are the sons of a detective. Chet's (friends with the Hardy brothers) car got stolen and they searched for the stolen car together. They get threatening calls and someone called to say that they will give information on where the car is for twenty five dollars (It's an older time so that's a lot).

I can't really tell how good this book is so far. Some dude got his car stolen. This causes the hardy boys to help him because they are friends.
