About this audiobook
The House on the Cliff (first published in 1927) is the second of the original Hardy Boys adventures. When Fenton Hardy, the famous private detective and father of the Hardy Boys, asks his sons to help him with his latest case, Frank and Joe find themselves up against a ruthless criminal named Felix Snattman, whose business is smuggling stolen drugs.
About the author
Franklin W. Dixon Franklin W. Dixon is actually a pseudonym for any number of ghostwriters who have had the distinction of writing stories for the Hardy Boys series. The series was originally created by Edward Stratmeyer in 1926, the same mastermind of the Nancy Drew detective series, Tom Swift, the Rover Boys and other characters. While Stratmeyer created the outlines for the original series, it was Canadian writer Leslie McFarlane who breathed life to the stories and created the persona Franklin W. Dixon. McFarlane wrote for the series for over twenty years and is credited with success of the early collection of stories. As the series became more popular, it was pared down, the format changed and new ghostwriters added their own flavor to the stories. Part of the draw of the Hardy Boys is that as the authors changed, so to did the times and the story lines. While there is no one true author of the series, each ghostwriter can be given credit for enhancing the life of this series and never unveiling that there really is no Franklin W. Dixon.
Wayne Evans is a professional voice actor who brings your words to life. Wayne grew up on a working ranch in North Dakota--yes, horses, cattle, and fences. And he subsequently travelled the seven continents. Like his life, Wayne's voice starts out as "all-American," but he travels with a world of voice-over skills. Wayne's voice-over work fits perfectly with e-learning and audiobooks, which have ranged from self-help books to memoirs to novels.
