The Secret of the Soldier's Gold
Book 182 of the The Hardy Boys Mystery Stories series
A story about a soldier’s hidden gold draws Frank and Joe Hardy into a treasure mystery with roots in the past. Old information about where the gold came from or where it was concealed attracts modern searchers whose motives are not all innocent. The brothers must separate legend from usable evidence while competing with people willing to take dangerous shortcuts. Franklin W. Dixon combines historical clues, hidden wealth, and juvenile detection in a Hardy Boys treasure hunt shaped by the legacy of an earlier soldier.
