Bookroo's summary

The Hardy boys embark on a thrilling quest with their Greek pen pal, Evan Pandropolos, to recover a lost ancient helmet. Once loaned to Hollywood, the artifact vanished, sparking a dangerous pursuit. As they follow clues from a Greek campus to California and back to Greece, they face adversaries at every turn. Will they uncover the helmet's secrets before it's too late?

From the publisher

Danger is the name of the game when the Hardys agree to help their pen pal from Greece, Evan Pandropolos, search for a priceless, ancient Greek helmet. Years ago, Evan’s uncle had loaned it to Hollywood movie company for use in a silent motion picture, but the treasured helmet had been lost. Picking up foes along the way, the young detectives unearth clues that keep them constantly on the move—from their Greek college campus to California and finally to Greece.
