Plot or Premise

This book marks the third in the Crimebusters series, with the Three Investigators in a plane crash with Bob’s father.

What I Liked

After the plane crash, they are forced to “rough it”, with standard adventure fare. The mystery is classic Three Investigators, and the series is beginning to somewhat settle into the new characters.

What I Didn’t Like

The adventure side degrades into dealing with polluters with M-16 rifles and there is a “fight” scene that again is very far removed from the Three Investigators’ world.

The Bottom Line

Not bad, not great.
