Note

Amy took the job of writing it. For more information on this puzzle, please

Ghostwriter finished it.
Note
5: In the words of Mr. Oliver: Well, if you had seen the original manuscripts,
you’d know why the editors wanted someone to rewrite them. I think Mega-Books
had a pretty tight budget. They couldn’t exactly throw big money at established
writers; so sometimes they took a chance on a new writer -- and sometimes
that didn’t work out.
Note
6: According to Mr. Garmon, "I created and outlined the Nancy Drew-Hardy
Boys Supermystery Buried in Time" - if this is so, then misters Lerangis
and Garmon shared the authorwork for this book. For more information, see
the letter from Mr. Garmon.
