Негізгі идея
Сериал алты жасөспірімнің Teen Power Inc. (америкалық қайта басылымдарда Help for Hire деп аталды) атты жартылай жұмыс агенттігін құруы және мектепке дейін және кейін ақша табуы туралы. Көбінесе, олардың жұмыстары оларды қиын жағдайға түсіреді, ал сериядағы әрбір кітап топтың шешуі керек бір негізгі жұмбаққа арналған; әңгімеші қылмысты ашады. Топқа кіретіндер: Ришель Бринкли, Санни Чан, Лиз Фри, Ник Контеллис, Том Мойстен және Эльмо Циммер.
The series revolves around six teenagers who have set up a part time job agency, Teen Power Inc. (changed to Help for Hire in the American republished editions) to work for cash before and after school. Usually, their jobs end up getting them into trouble and each book in the series generally revolves around one main mystery for the gang to go through; with the narrator being the crime solver. The squad consists of: Richelle Brinkley, Sunny Chan, Liz Free, Nick Kontellis, Tom Moysten and Elmo Zimmer.
Құрылымы
Әр романды әртүрлі адам баяндайды. Алғашқы он төрт кітапта баяндау Лиз, Том, Ричелл, Эльмо, Санни, Ник циклы бойынша жүргізілді. Бірақ 14-кітаптан кейін 15-кітапты Ричеллдің орнына Санни баяндады. Сериал төртінші цикл үшін (19–24 кітаптар) бастапқы ретке оралды, бірақ бесінші және соңғы цикл үшін (25–30 кітаптар) қайтадан ретсіз болды, Ричелл Лиздің орнына баяндауды бастады. Дегенмен, алты кітаптан тұратын әрбір циклде Teen Power Inc тобының әрбір мүшесі міндетті түрде бір реттен баяндама жасайды.
Each novel in the series is narrated by a different person. For the first fourteen books, the narration followed the cycle order of Liz Tom Richelle Elmo Sunny Nick. However, after book 14 (Tom), book 15 was narrated by Sunny instead of Richelle. The series reverted to the original order for the fourth cycle (books 19–24) but then scrambled again for the fifth and last cycle (books 25–30), with Richelle starting the narration instead of Liz. However, each cycle of six books without exception has one contribution from every member of the Teen Power Inc group.
"Рейвен Хилл Мистериес" қайта басылып шығарылды
Teen Power Inc кітаптары 2006 жылы АҚШ-та Raven Hill Mysteries деген атпен қайта жарық көрді. Жаңа басылымдарда жұмыс агенттігінің атауы "Жұмысқа жалдау" деп өзгертілді, сондай-ақ кейбір кітаптардың атаулары да өзгерді (мысалы, St Elmo's Fire кітабы Deep Secrets болып аударылды). Сонымен қатар, жаңа басылымдардың реті шатастырылып, түпнұсқа серияның соңғы кітабында (Dead End) Teen Power-дың өткенінен кек қайта алу үшін келген қылмыскер туралы айтылғандықтан, байланысқа қатысты үлкен мәселелер тудырды. Осы қылмыскер алғаш рет таныстырылған кітаптан бұрын, жаңа серияда алтыншы болып басылды, ал түпнұсқада бұл кітап соңғы болған.
The Teen Power Inc books were relaunched in the US in 2006 under the name Raven Hill Mysteries. In the reprints, the name of the job agency is changed to "Help for hire" and certain book titles were also changed (such as St Elmo's Fire becoming Deep Secrets). Further, the order of the reprints has been scrambled, causing major continuity problems given that the final book in the original series (Dead End) which dealt with a criminal from Teen Power's past coming back to seek revenge on the gang which put him in jail, has been published sixth in the new series and prior to the book which first introduced this criminal.
Негізгі кейіпкерлер
Лиз (Елизавета) Фри – шын мәнінде топтың жетекшісі. Teen Power Inc. компаниясын құру оның идеясы болды және ол оны қатты қорғайды. Ол топтағы ең сезімтал, басқаларға шынайы көңіл бөледі. Лиз Фри өзін "қарапайым" деп сипаттайды – орташа бойлы, орташа салмақты және иыққа дейін жететін қоңыр шашты. Ол дүкендерде киім іздеуді және өзіне киім тігуді ұнатады. Ол жылжымайтын мүлікпен айналысатын әкесі мен банк кассирі анасының қызы, бір інісі Пит (бірақ "Бұрылыс нүктесінде" оның аты Дэнни деп өзгереді) және үлкен, шашық иті Кристо бар. Әр жұма сайын ол "Крейгенд" зейнеткерлер үйіне барып, Перл Пламмерді көріп, оған дүкеннен қажетті заттарды сатып алады.
Liz (Elizabeth) Free Liz is the de facto leader of the gang. It was originally her idea to set up Teen Power Inc., and she is very protective of it. She is the most sentimental out of the group, and genuinely cares a lot about others. Liz Free describes herself as "plain" average height, average weight and shoulder length brown hair. She enjoys op shopping and making her own clothes to wear. The daughter of a real estate father and bank teller mother, she has one younger brother Pete (although a continuity error in Breaking Point sees her brother renamed Danny) and a large shaggy dog Christo. Every Friday, she goes to the retirement home, 'Craigend', to visit Pearl Plummer and do her shopping for her. Tom (Thomas) Moysten Tom is the typical class clown who likes to tell jokes and muck around in class. Despite this, he is a very talented artist and this is one of his key characteristics in the series, along with his fondness for eating. Tom is very tall and lanky. He has gangly arms and legs, and braces on his teeth. He is a messy dresser, which reflects his messy personality. His parents are divorced and he lives with his mother Grace and her new husband Brian, an ancient history teacher at Raven Hill High, and his two half brothers Adam and Jonathan. There is high tension between Brian and Tom, although this eases towards the later books as each begins to understand the other a little more. Tom's biological father, Mel, is a painter who lives in Banyan Bay with his new wife Faye (Banyan Bay and Mel Moysten are both featured prominently in the book The Secret of Banyan Bay). He cannot swim. Tom and Sunny get on well because they both know what it is like to have divorced parents. Richelle Brinkley Richelle is the frequently vague and rather vain member. She has known Liz since kindergarten, and they are still friends, although they have little in common. Richelle is tall with blue eyes and blonde hair. She dreams of being a model or a movie star. She often surprises her friends with perspicacious remarks. Richelle lives with her mum Delia and timberyard manager dad John, and her older sister Tiffany and younger brother Jason. Elmo Zimmer III Elmo is the only member of the gang who was not part of the original grouping in the first book, The Ghost of Raven Hill, even though he appears as a character almost from the beginning when he joins Teen Power Inc. to deliver the local paper The Pen. His father, also Elmo Zimmer, is the editor of The Pen, and the first book traces the history of the Zimmer family through to Elmo's grandfather (also Elmo Zimmer and the original editor of The Pen) and the survival of the local paper against the rival Star. Elmo's mother Sarah died when Elmo was very young, and Elmo, following his father and his grandfather before him, dreams of running The Pen when he grows up. Elmo is a quiet and keen boy who is interested in local news. Sunny (Alice) Chan Sunny is Liz's best friend. She is the most athletic out of the gang and is active in gymnastics, yoga and Tae kwon do. She lives with her mother and her three sisters Sarah, Amy and Penny. Her eldest sister Cathie, with whom she used to share a room, married her boyfriend Lindsay Shearer in book #29 (The Secret Enemy). Her father Roy Chan is a famous tennis player in America, and divorced Sunny's mother when Sunny was aged four. This forms the basis of much of the storyline in book #5 (Beware the Gingerbread House). Sunny is a calm and practical girl who knows how to get out of tight situations. Nick (Nicholas) Kontellis Nick is the slicked back cool guy of the group and often acts sarcastic and superior. His father Demetrios, originally from Greece, is a well off importer exporter and the Kontellis family live in the wealthier parts of Raven Hill. His mother Toula is very protective of him, as her only child. Nick likes computer games and business, and is usually the member most concerned with the money aspect of each job. He is the brains of the group. He and Tom frequently clash due to their different personalities though they are the best of friends.
Том (Томас) Мойстен – сыныпта әзіл-қалжың айтып, ойын-құдақ жасауды ұнататын, әдеттегі сынып клоуны. Осыған қарамастан, ол өте талантты суретші және бұл оның сериядағы басты ерекшеліктерінің бірі, сонымен қатар тамаққа құмарлығы да бар. Том өте бойлы және жіңішке. Оның қолы мен аяқтары ұзын, тістеріне тістік тіреуіш тағылған. Ол киім киюде шатақ, бұл оның мінезінің шатақтығын көрсетеді. Оның ата-анасы ажырасқан, ол анасы Грейс және оның жаңа күйеуі Брайанмен, Рейвен Хилл орта мектебінде ежелгі тарих сабағын оқытатын адаммен, және оның екі ағасы Адам мен Джонатанмен бірге тұрады. Брайан мен Том арасында шиеленіс бар, бірақ кейінгі кітаптарда бұл жеңілдейді, өйткені екеуі де бірін-бірін жақсырақ түсіне бастайды. Томның әкесі Мел – суретші, ол Баньян-Бэйде жаңа әйелі Фэймен бірге тұрады (Баньян-Бэй мен Мел Мойстен екеуі де "Баньян-Бэйдің құпиясы" кітабында маңызды орын алады). Ол жүзе алмайды. Том мен Санни жақсы қарым-қатынаста, өйткені екеуі де ажырасқан ата-ананың не екенін біледі.

Ричел Бринкли – көбінесе түсініксіз және өте мақтанды мүше. Ол Лизді балабақшадан біледі және олар әлі де дос, бірақ олардың ортақ нәрсесі көп емес. Ричел бойлы, көк көзді және сары шашты. Ол модель немесе киножұлдыз болуды армандайды. Ол достарына көбінесе ойлы пікірлер айтып, таң қалдырады.

Every Friday, she goes to the retirement home, 'Craigend', to visit Pearl Plummer and do her shopping for her. Tom (Thomas) Moysten Tom is the typical class clown who likes to tell jokes and muck around in class. Despite this, he is a very talented artist and this is one of his key characteristics in the series, along with his fondness for eating. Tom is very tall and lanky. He has gangly arms and legs, and braces on his teeth. He is a messy dresser, which reflects his messy personality. His parents are divorced and he lives with his mother Grace and her new husband Brian, an ancient history teacher at Raven Hill High, and his two half brothers Adam and Jonathan. There is high tension between Brian and Tom, although this eases towards the later books as each begins to understand the other a little more. Tom's biological father, Mel, is a painter who lives in Banyan Bay with his new wife Faye (Banyan Bay and Mel Moysten are both featured prominently in the book The Secret of Banyan Bay). He cannot swim. Tom and Sunny get on well because they both know what it is like to have divorced parents. Richelle Brinkley Richelle is the frequently vague and rather vain member. She has known Liz since kindergarten, and they are still friends, although they have little in common. Richelle is tall with blue eyes and blonde hair. She dreams of being a model or a movie star. She often surprises her friends with perspicacious remarks. Richelle lives with her mum Delia and timberyard manager dad John, and her older sister Tiffany and younger brother Jason. Elmo Zimmer III Elmo is the only member of the gang who was not part of the original grouping in the first book, The Ghost of Raven Hill, even though he appears as a character almost from the beginning when he joins Teen Power Inc. to deliver the local paper The Pen. His father, also Elmo Zimmer, is the editor of The Pen, and the first book traces the history of the Zimmer family through to Elmo's grandfather (also Elmo Zimmer and the original editor of The Pen) and the survival of the local paper against the rival Star. Elmo's mother Sarah died when Elmo was very young, and Elmo, following his father and his grandfather before him, dreams of running The Pen when he grows up. Elmo is a quiet and keen boy who is interested in local news. Sunny (Alice) Chan Sunny is Liz's best friend. She is the most athletic out of the gang and is active in gymnastics, yoga and Tae kwon do. She lives with her mother and her three sisters Sarah, Amy and Penny. Her eldest sister Cathie, with whom she used to share a room, married her boyfriend Lindsay Shearer in book #29 (The Secret Enemy). Her father Roy Chan is a famous tennis player in America, and divorced Sunny's mother when Sunny was aged four. This forms the basis of much of the storyline in book #5 (Beware the Gingerbread House). Sunny is a calm and practical girl who knows how to get out of tight situations. Nick (Nicholas) Kontellis Nick is the slicked back cool guy of the group and often acts sarcastic and superior. His father Demetrios, originally from Greece, is a well off importer exporter and the Kontellis family live in the wealthier parts of Raven Hill. His mother Toula is very protective of him, as her only child. Nick likes computer games and business, and is usually the member most concerned with the money aspect of each job. He is the brains of the group. He and Tom frequently clash due to their different personalities though they are the best of friends.

After the death of his wife, he bought a Burmese cat, Shadow, for his son Elmo. Miss Moss Christened 'Mossy' by Elmo Zimmer (Elmo Zimmer II's Father/Elmo Zimmer III's Grandfather), she is introduced in The Ghost of Raven Hill as the crabby receptionist at The Pen. After she plays a pivotal role in ensuring The Pens continued survival, she and the gang get along much better. She is a very efficient receptionist and organizer, and as the series progresses, almost becomes a mother figure to Elmo. Constable Greta Vortek Stationed at Raven Hill, Greta is the police officer who appears most throughout the series (although other police officers such as Detective Constable Crispin and Detective Angela Maroni are mentioned in a couple of books, they do not appear to have much continuity as characters). A great believer in the Teen Power gang, she is reluctant to believe that they have turned to crime in book #30 Dead End, but is forced to face what she thinks is clear evidence. Stephen Spiers Another victim of continuity issues, Stephen is the senior reporter at The Pen throughout the whole series despite taking a job with a rival paper in the first book.

They particularly hate Tom, and the later books narrated by Tom show him frequently scrapping with the Work Demons; a plot point which is also used to some degree of success in book #24 The War of the Work Demons. Led by Bradley Henshaw (who in Beware the Gingerbread house was called Darren Henshaw; this was a continuity error in the original series, although the reprints have Darren and Bradley as separate characters, and brothers), the Demons often leave jobs half finished and incomplete, earning them the nicknames of the "Worst Demons" and the "Work Dumbos" by most of Raven Hill. They often stir up trouble for the Teen Power gang, including an occasion where they once broke into a shop after Teen Power had finished cleaning it to make it dirty and to make it seem like Teen Power had done a bad job. The Wolf A big time criminal who resides in Raven Hill during the summer. he is a huge, fat man. He causes trouble for the gang for the first time in Beware of the Gingerbread House and reappears numerous times, most notably in Dead End. Mrs Drisk Haskell A wealthy, middle aged widow from one of the oldest and most distinguished families in Raven Hill. She first hires the Teen Power gang in book #10 Poison Pen to clean her house after firing her former cleaning lady, Mrs Flower, for suspected pilfering. She is impressed by Liz, Elmo, Tom, Sunny and Richelle because they all come from old Raven Hill families, but she is dismissive of Nick, probably because of his nouveau riche background.

Констебль Грета Вортек, Рейвен Хиллде орналасқан Грета – серия бойында жиі кездесетін полиция қызметкері (детектив Констебль Криспин және детектив Анжела Марони сияқты басқа полиция қызметкерлері бірнеше кітапта аталғанымен, олар кейіпкерлер ретінде үлкен сабақтастыққа ие емес).

Жұмыс жындылары – "Teen Power Inc." компаниясының жұмыс агенттігін құру идеясын көшірген алты жігіттің тобы. Олар көбінесе командамен қақтығыс тудырады. Олар әсіресе Томды жек көреді, ал Том айтқан кейінгі кітаптарда ол Жұмыс жындыларымен жиі ұрысып отырады; бұл сюжеттік желі #24 "The War of the Work Demons" кітабында да белгілі бір дәрежеде сәтті қолданылған. Брэдли Хеншоудың басшылығымен (алғашқы серияда "Beware the Gingerbread House" кітабында Даррен Хеншоу деп аталған, бұл түпнұсқа сериядағы сабақтастық қатесі болды, бірақ қайта басылымдарда Даррен мен Брэдли бөлек кейіпкерлер және ағайындылар ретінде көрсетілген), Жындылар көбінесе жұмысты жартылай аяқталмай және толықсыз қалдырады, осылайша Рейвен Хилл тұрғындары оларды "Ең нашар жындылар" және "Жұмыс ақымақтары" деп атайды. Олар "Teen Power" тобы үшін жиі қиындықтар тудырады, соның ішінде бір рет "Teen Power" тазартып болғаннан кейін дүкенге кірген кезде, оны лас етіп, "Teen Power" нашар жұмыс істегендей көрінетіндей етеді.

They often stir up trouble for the Teen Power gang, including an occasion where they once broke into a shop after Teen Power had finished cleaning it to make it dirty and to make it seem like Teen Power had done a bad job. The Wolf A big time criminal who resides in Raven Hill during the summer. he is a huge, fat man. He causes trouble for the gang for the first time in Beware of the Gingerbread House and reappears numerous times, most notably in Dead End. Mrs Drisk Haskell A wealthy, middle aged widow from one of the oldest and most distinguished families in Raven Hill. She first hires the Teen Power gang in book #10 Poison Pen to clean her house after firing her former cleaning lady, Mrs Flower, for suspected pilfering. She is impressed by Liz, Elmo, Tom, Sunny and Richelle because they all come from old Raven Hill families, but she is dismissive of Nick, probably because of his nouveau riche background.
Қасқыр, жаз бойы Рейвен Хиллде тұратын үлкен қылмыскер. Ол үлкен, семіз адам. Ол алғаш рет "Beware of the Gingerbread House" кітабында командаға қиындық туғызады және көптеген рет, әсіресе "Dead End" кітабында қайта пайда болады.
Elmo Zimmer II Also known as Zim, Elmo Zimmer II is the father of Elmo Zimmer III and owns the local newspaper, The Pen. He is always willing to help Teen Power Inc. out. He was first introduced in the first book, The Ghost of Raven Hill, where he is described as a 'small man with a round face' and 'odd'. After the death of his wife, he bought a Burmese cat, Shadow, for his son Elmo. Miss Moss Christened 'Mossy' by Elmo Zimmer (Elmo Zimmer II's Father/Elmo Zimmer III's Grandfather), she is introduced in The Ghost of Raven Hill as the crabby receptionist at The Pen. After she plays a pivotal role in ensuring The Pens continued survival, she and the gang get along much better. She is a very efficient receptionist and organizer, and as the series progresses, almost becomes a mother figure to Elmo. Constable Greta Vortek Stationed at Raven Hill, Greta is the police officer who appears most throughout the series (although other police officers such as Detective Constable Crispin and Detective Angela Maroni are mentioned in a couple of books, they do not appear to have much continuity as characters). A great believer in the Teen Power gang, she is reluctant to believe that they have turned to crime in book #30 Dead End, but is forced to face what she thinks is clear evidence. Stephen Spiers Another victim of continuity issues, Stephen is the senior reporter at The Pen throughout the whole series despite taking a job with a rival paper in the first book. He is usually used as a way to introduce information to the reader. Ms Adair An English teacher at Raven Hill High, she first appears in book #10 Poison Pen and again in book #13 Nowhere to Run. She is one of the more popular teachers at the school and has great respect for the Teen Power gang. Mrs Fenelli First making her appearance in book #13 Nowhere to Run as a crabby teacher leading a school camp, she makes her second and final showing in book #30 Dead End as the teacher who accuses Teen Power Inc. of spray painting graffiti onto a building. Particularly in book #30, she is portrayed as a mean, vindictive and unreasonable teacher who refuses to listen to any other person's point of view. The Work Demons A gang of six boys who have copied Teen Power Inc.'s idea of setting up a job agency, they are often used as a source of conflict with the gang. They particularly hate Tom, and the later books narrated by Tom show him frequently scrapping with the Work Demons; a plot point which is also used to some degree of success in book #24 The War of the Work Demons. Led by Bradley Henshaw (who in Beware the Gingerbread house was called Darren Henshaw; this was a continuity error in the original series, although the reprints have Darren and Bradley as separate characters, and brothers), the Demons often leave jobs half finished and incomplete, earning them the nicknames of the "Worst Demons" and the "Work Dumbos" by most of Raven Hill.

Дриск Хаскелл ханым, Равен Хиллдегі ең ескі және танымал отбасылардың бірінен шыққан бай, орта жастағы жесір. Ол алғаш рет #10 "Poison Pen" кітабында "Teen Power" тобын үйін тазалау үшін жалдады, бұрынғы үй тазалаушы әйел, миссис Флауэрді, ұрлық жасады деп күдіктенгені үшін босатқаннан кейін. Ол Лиз, Элмо, Том, Санни және Ришельге таңғалады, өйткені олардың барлығы ескі Рейвен Хилл отбасыларынан шыққан, бірақ ол Никке немқұрайлы қарайды, мүмкін оның жаңа байлығының әсерінен.
