Deliver Us From Evil
by SnowPrincess88
- Recommended by FrankHardysGirl
- Status: Complete
- Pairings: Frank Hardy/Nancy Drew, Joe Hardy/OC
- Synopsis: Frank and Joe are on assignment in Switzerland to protect a U.S. Senator's daughter against a mysterious stalker. Along the way, they become entangled in a second mystery involving missing artifacts from a nearby monastery. The danger ratchets up, and an unexpected twist in their first case leaves Frank and Joe wondering if they'll actually make it home alive.
- Comments: Snow sets her tales post-season 2 and wipes season 3 off the map. This one is in progress; Snow takes the "Kathy" character from Scorpion's Sting and does a scary-as-hell rework.

- Recommended by FrankHardysGirl
- Status: Complete
- Synopsis: Season 2: In the episode Sole Survivor, what if Joe found the perfume spill before Abrams entered the room?
- Comments: Mouse retakes the infamous Sole Survivor episode and plays the villains smart! Warning: does have graphic violence, including a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown on Joe Hardy. As I said, the villains are SMART.

Have Gun, Will Murder by SnowPrincess88
- Recommended by FrankHardysGirl
- Status: Complete
- Pairings: Frank Hardy/Nancy Drew, Joe Hardy/OC
- Synopsis: Pre-season 3; the Hardys & Nancy Drew head to an Oklahoma cattle ranch to investigate instances of vandalism, never imagining that what seemed like a such a trivial case could quickly become so violent...and deadly.
- Comments: A very FUN tale that captures the light, cheesy fluffiness of the show wonderfully. Has some adult sexual themes, but nothing explicit.
The Art of the Heist by SnowPrincess88

- Pairings: Frank Hardy/Nancy Drew, Joe Hardy/OC
- Synopsis: Pre-season 3; What was supposed to be an easy trip to Jamaica to apprehend art smugglers, quickly turns violent as new clues lead the Hardys to wonder who's really a friend…and who wants them dead.
- Comments: Another very fun tale that captures the light-heartedness of the show. Again, adult themes and a lot of sex-teasing, but nothing explicit.
To Wash It White As Snow by JDSampson
- Recommended by FrankHardysGirl
- Status: Complete
- Synopsis: Set post-Season 3. When an undercover assignment goes wrong and Joe is badly hurt, Frank thinks long and hard about his association with the Justice Dept. Then the suspect comes back for revenge and Frank must bear the weight of his brother's blood on his own hands.
- Comments: JD is a VERY talented writer, taking the series and adding real-world grit to it. For the squeamish: if the thought of being Buried Alive scares the daylights out of you, you may want to give this one a pass.

- Synopsis: Set post-Season 3. A vacation at the beach turns into a nightmare when Frank and Joe discover that one of their friends is willing to kill in order to expose a liar.
