In The Mystery of the Screaming Clock, the Three Investigators have to find out. The answer could help Jupiter, Pete, and Bob free a man who's been wrongfully imprisoned - and time is running out!Who was the mysterious A. Clock? What does the trail of clues he left behind him mean? And how will a book cipher and a room full of clocks lead to the twisted truth behind this complex and exciting case?By turns baffling, gripping, and bizarre, the ninth book in Robert Arthur’s classic mystery series promises to please not only the existing fan base of The Three Investigators series but a whole new generation of readers who will find in its pages three very different boys whose imagination, courage, and intelligence can remind us that curiosity, perseverance, and rational inquiry are just as vital as friendship and cooperation.After all, the motto of The Three Investigators is "We Investigate Anything," and their trademark is “???” - three question marks, taken together. Celebrating the 60th anniversary of The Three Investigators series, this new edition of the Robert Arthur novels includes all ten titles, with end notes written by Elizabeth Arthur and Steven Bauer.Continue the adventure with the contemporary Three Investigators series, crafted for a slightly older audience.
