 Frank Hardy |
| Nineteen-year-old Frank is now a sophomore at Bayport
Community College, where he is pursuing studies in Criminal Justice
and Criminal Investigation in preparation for a career as a private
investigator. Tall,
dark and handsome as ever, Frank has found life after high school
even more exciting than ever before, now that Megan Wright has
appeared. |

Joe Hardy |
|
Eighteen now, and a freshman at Bayport Community College,
Joe is anticipating an eventual degree, and a career with Hardy
and Sons Investigations.
Blonde and blue-eyed, Joe is still an impetuous tease, but
his heart truly belongs to Vanessa Bender.
|

Laura Hardy |
| Petite and lovely, blonde and blue-eyed like her younger son,
Laura continues to grace the Hardy household with her calming
presence; offering wit, humor, common sense and unmitigated love to
the three Hardy men.
|

Fenton Hardy |
| A
crack private investigator, internationally famous for his
crime-solving abilities, Fenton is an older version of his son
Frank, being tall, dark, and good-looking. He is proud of his sons’
sleuthing abilities, and is beginning to look forward to them
sharing the same career. Although he can appear aloof and withdrawn
at times, Fenton loves and cherishes his family dearly. |

Vanessa Bender |
| Joe’s tall, blonde girlfriend, whose intelligence and
expertise with computers and graphics is highly appreciated by her
friends. Cool and witty,
as quick with a wisecrack as Joe himself, Vanessa finds her life
more and more inextricably intertwined with the younger Hardy –
and she’s not objecting!
|

Megan Wright |
| Megan is a 5’2” redhead with a winning smile and
beautiful turquoise-blue eyes, whom Frank meets his first week of
college. She first
approached the Hardys for help in solving a suspected murder –
that of her father. However,
the attraction between Megan and Frank Hardy was immediate, and a
business relationship rapidly became an emotional attachment; she
and Frank became a solid “couple” in short order.
Intelligent, with a warm, gentle personality, Megan brings
out the lover in Frank like no other girl has been able to do.
|

Jack Wayne |
| First Fenton's private pilot, now the owner of Wayne's World Air Courier and Cargo Service, Jack is in his mid-twenties, and is tall and lean, with dark hair and eyes. He is the guardian for his younger sister, April. |
 
Michael and Erica
Ranson: |
| The Ransons
are a young couple whom the Hardys met at Lake Tahoe, and who have
now come to Bayport on business.
Michael is in his early 30’s, and is tall and muscular,
with dark hair and blue eyes. Erica,
his bride of a short while, is a fragile-looking blonde about 23
years old. |

Danielle Tanner |
|
According to Frank, Dani Tanner is ‘the most gorgeous
firefighter in the state of New York,’ and she loves her work –
but sometimes she regrets the time constraints and strictures it
puts on her life. Good
friends with the Hardy boys, and especially close to Frank, Dani is
strikingly beautiful, with glossy black hair and dark eyes – but
she is sometimes very lonely.
|

Con Riley:
|
| A detective on the Bayport City Police force, Con has been a
good friend to the Hardy family, again and again.
Slightly under six feet tall, and sturdily built, late-30’s
Con has dark hair and blue eyes. |

Kirk Moncrief |
| Kirk Moncrief is an intense, highly intelligent college
student with a sardonic sense of humor and an interest in science
and the environment. He
shares classes with Megan, for whom he holds a secret admiration. |
