Bookroo's summary

Frank and Joe Hardy face their most perilous case yet when a snow leopard vanishes from Bayport Zoo, followed by the mysterious disappearance of Princess Salamaji. As they delve into a world filled with dangerous predators, both animal and human, the brothers must navigate a treacherous path to rescue the princess. With an ambush looming, can they outsmart the hunter and survive the law of the jungle? The stakes are life and death, and the Hardys must act swiftly to save themselves and the princess from a sinister fate.

From the publisher

The hunt is on… and the Hardy Boys could end up being dead meat! Frank and Joe’s latest case could give new meaning to the words “eat hardy”! A rare and beautiful snow leopard, a gift from Princess Salamaji of Rashipah, has disappeared from the Bayport Zoo, and the boys suspect foul play. Their suspicions are confirmed when the Princess herself vanishes… a victim of kidnapping! Their investigation leads them into a sinister world of jaws and claws, lions and tigers and snakes. But the most dangerous animal of all is the human kind, and the Hardys are headed straight into an ambush. The only way to save the Princess– and themselves– is to observe the law of the jungle: beat the hunter at his own game!
