The Four-Headed Dragon

by Franklin W. Dixon

Book 69 of the The Hardy Boys Mystery Stories series

Frank and Joe Hardy become involved in a case centered on a four-headed dragon symbol. The investigation forces them to make sense of an elaborate emblem whose meaning connects people and places, while suspicious people work to keep the real explanation hidden. The brothers combine observation, teamwork, and a willingness to enter dangerous situations as the clues develop into a larger scheme. Franklin W. Dixon’s Hardy Boys adventure blends international-style intrigue with the series’ familiar fast-moving juvenile detection, keeping the emphasis on uncovering the human motives behind an attention-grabbing mystery.
