- Synopsis
- From the back of the book: Neon nightmares! A cool million in cash can raise temperatures in even the hottest towns, and no city on earth sizzles like Las Vegas, Nevada. The Hardys have come to the Camelot Casino so Frank can compete in the National Computer Chess Championship. But before the first move is made, the boys find themselves pawns in a chilling kidnapping caper. The daughter of a ruthless local businessman is the victim, and Frank and Joe are prime suspects, The only way to clear their name is find the girl and grab her abductors. But the kidnappers are masters of the game. The Hardys must watch their step and make every move count-or they may end up walking into a deadly desert trap! =============== From inside the book: KNIGHT LIFE The Hardys ran through the hotel, hoping to shake the man who was chasing them. "In here," Joe yelled, running through a door labeled Employees Only. Frank followed, then slammed the door and bolted it behind them. Frank sank to one knee to catch his breath. He noticed he was kneeling in dirt instead of tile or carpet. Then he became aware of a noise like thunder-a rolling, staccato sound that seemed to be growing louder. Frank raised his head. A horse in medieval armor was bearing down on them. Astride the horse was a knight, also in full armor. "W-wait a minute," Frank stammered as he stood up, wondering if he'd been knocked unconscious and was dreaming. The knight's lance was pointed directly at him. Both boys whirled to see another knight on horseback charging from the other side. "It's real!" Joe shouted. "You bet it's real," Frank yelled. "And we're caught in the middle."
