Bayport goes back in time when a Revolutionary War-era battleship is discovered, along with a treasure trove of historic artifacts. To celebrate, the town stages a reenactment of the historic Battle of Bayport, complete with antique artillery, canons, and tricorn hats. Even Frank and Joe Hardy are decked out in full Colonial costume, fighting over freedom and taxes on opposite sides of the battle line.
But things get a little too real when a stray shot leaves Bayports biggest benefactor, Don Sterling, without a pulse. Wait a minutewerent those muskets supposed to be unloaded And even though the Hardy Boys have technically retired from solving mysteries, they cant help but get involved, especially when a favorite teacher turns out to be a prime suspect. Is someone trying to frame Mr. Lazin And who would want Don Sterling dead Murder by reenactment is one the Hardys havent seen before, but dont think theyre not up for the challenge!
