Ghostwritten<\/strong><\/p>\n

Frank and Joe find themselves in a cattle-rustling tussle when a prized horse is snatched from a nearby ranch in this exciting Hardy Boys equestrian adventure.<\/p>\n

The Wild West hits the East Coast when Welch\u2019s Annual Rodeo and Wild West Show arrives in Bayport. Frank and Joe are enjoying the show\u2019s historic reenactments, rodeo events, and even an exhibition of the Welch family\u2019s prize-winning horse, Hondo.<\/p>\n

When the brothers catch several ranch hands trying to steal Hondo, they manage to stop it. Though very grateful for their intervention, the Welch family is now shorthanded for the cattle drive back to their dude ranch! So Chief Olaf \u201cvolunteers\u201d the Hardys to help out.<\/p>\n

The brothers\u2019 long-dormant horse-riding skills slowly come back to them as they make their way down the quiet rural roads toward the ranch. But as they\u2019re finally getting the hang of it, a group of dirt bike\u2013riding cattle rustlers surround the herd\u2014and take Hondo!<\/p>\n

Will the Hardy Boys lasso the horse thieves\u2014or will this be their final showdown?<\/p>\n
