The Mystery of the Moaning Cave
|
|
| Synopsis |
Case 10 |
|
Many years ago, the young bandit El Diablo disappeared into a cave, never to be seen again. Now an
eerie moaning sound is coming from his old hideout, and the ranchers who live nearby think he may
still be alive. The Three Investigators set out to explore the moaning cave--and soon wish they had
come armed with more than a flashlight !
The boys travel to a ranch to investigate a cave that has unexplainably begun moaning and discover
that the moaning is related to a diamond robbery and a long-dead bandit named El Diablo.
