Bookroo's summary

Frank and Joe face a race against time to stop the Masked Marauder, a mysterious villain threatening to destroy a struggling TV station. With the station's future hanging by a thread, the brothers must unravel the Marauder's identity and motives before it's too late. Will they uncover the truth behind the original reels of a '50s sitcom, or will the station become a real-life crime scene? As the clock ticks down, the stakes couldn't be higher in this thrilling chase to prevent disaster.

From the publisher

Original reels of a popular ‘50s sitcom could be the gold mine that a financially ailing local television station needs. But a strange villain, calling himself the Masked Marauder, wants the station out of business. If Frank and Joe don’t find him, they may just have a real-life crime series on their hands.
