This one must have slipped my net. The Voodoo Plot is basically Hardys go Jazz, as a series of thefts from antiques boutiques lead them down to New Orleans.
It's a bit more involved than that. The Voodoo comes from a sub plot where a friend of the boys, Peter Walker, has his grandpa threatened so he won't play on their basketball team. It seems that his Grandad is also quite a renowned jazz player with his own club. And of course the two cases are involved when it turns out that the voodoo gang threatening him are also in league with the thieves.
This is also the first time I'd ever come across the no step on snek / Gadsden flag as the American revolution was never covered here in detail. And, yes, there are elements of this in this story too, as someone is dressed up as the Swamp Fox and another as George III.
Anyway you can read both the UK and US versions here and here. Though there are no differences between them.
