A Question of Guilt is an exciting Supermystery crossover novel. It brings together two famous young detectives: Frank and Joe Hardy and Nancy Drew. This book was published in 1996. It's a special story because the detectives usually work alone. But in this book, they team up to solve a big mystery.

The Big Mystery

This story takes place in the city of Philadelphia. Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys find themselves working on the same case. However, they are on completely different sides! It's a very important case that has already been to court.

A Tricky Situation

Nancy Drew's dad, Carson Drew, is a lawyer. His client was involved in a serious situation. The court decided that Carson's client was not guilty. This happened because of a legal detail. But even though the court case is over, some people still have doubts.

Nancy's Goal

Nancy Drew and her father want to prove their client is truly innocent. They want to find strong evidence that leaves no doubt. They believe he did not commit the crime.

The Hardy Boys' Goal

Meanwhile, Frank and Joe Hardy have a different goal. They are trying to find proof that the client is guilty. They want to find clear evidence to show he was involved. This means Nancy and the Hardys are working against each other. They are both trying to solve the same mystery, but from opposite points of view.
