Series Background

Like all Hardy Boys series, the Undercover Brothers is about two teenage brother detectives, Frank and Joe Hardy, who are the sons of world famous [PI], Fenton Hardy. Although there are many similarities in this series to previous Hardy Boys series, there are also many changes, here are just a few:

★ The Hardy boys are undercover agents for ATAC (American Teens Against Crime), a top secret government organization, co-fonded by their father, Fenton, and are solving more realistic and/or violent crimes.

★ The books in this series are written in first-person narrative style with Frank and Joe alternating chapters.

★ The Hardy boys' aunt's name is changed from Gertrude to Trudy, but is very much the same person.

★ Frank and Joe no longer date their long time girlfreinds, Callie Shaw (Frank's girlfreind) and Iola Morton (Joe's girlfreind).

★ The Hardys' have a pet parrot, named Playback.
