When the teenage brothers Frank and Joe Hardy are accused of the murder of their father—a detective in the small resort town of Bayport—they must team up with the femme fatale Nancy Drew to prove their innocence (and find the real guilty party in the process) in a twisting, hard-boiled tale, complete with double-crosses, deceit and dames. Inspired by new crime classics like Ed Brubaker's Fatale and Darwyn Cooke's parker series, writer Anthony Del Col (Assassin's Creed, Kill Shakespeare) and artist Werther Dell'Edera (Batman: Detective Comics, House of Mystery) bring the iconic teen detectives into the modern age, and redefine noir for a new generation of readers!

Nancy Drew has a killer plan. In order to clear their names from accusations of their father's murder, she and the Hardy Boys will have to infiltrate a family of petty thieves—by beating at their own (card) games! The classic characters dive deeper into the seedy underbelly of a tourist-town—and they begin to find out if they're really able to go bad in order to do good.
