The Sinister Signpost

by Franklin W. Dixon

Book 15 of the The Hardy Boys Mystery Stories series

A sinister signpost attracts Frank and Joe Hardy’s attention because its meaning appears connected to suspicious events. What should merely direct travelers instead becomes a clue whose placement or markings point toward hidden activity. The brothers follow its significance into a case involving people prepared to discourage investigation. Franklin W. Dixon uses a commonplace roadside object as the gateway to another Hardy Boys adventure, turning navigation into mystery when a sign appears to indicate more than a destination.
