The premise

The hobby detectives “The Three Investigators” want to take a little break. So they take advantage of an offer from Peter's father, who has accepted a job in South Africa and wants to take the detectives there. But Jupiter, Peter and Bob wouldn't be the three investigators marks feared by the criminal world if they just lounged around in the sun on their vacation. So it's no wonder that the clever boys soon have their next case to solve...

Horror Vault's take

Three young hobby detectives hoping for a relaxing South African holiday find themselves pulled into a web of local legend, buried treasure, and something lurking on Skeleton Island. Set against the vivid backdrop of Cape Town and its surrounding landscapes, the case is far darker and more dangerous than a typical vacation detour. Jupiter, Peter, and Bob must pit their wits against adversaries who are very much counting on the island's fearsome reputation to keep the curious away.
