Trouble takes flight in the Hardys’ ninth thrilling mystery!

When a reckless pilot named Giles Ducroy accuses Frank and Joe Hardy of destroying his plane, the brothers suddenly find themselves in big trouble—right in the middle of exam week! But that’s just the beginning.

Soon, a string of daring robberies rocks the local airport, and all the clues point straight to the Hardys. Framed and running out of time, the brothers must clear their names and uncover the real criminals before the gang’s biggest heist takes off.

Their only chance? A dangerous undercover mission—stowing away inside the crooks’ own plane for days on end!

Can Frank and Joe stay hidden long enough to stop the thieves… or will this be one flight they don’t walk away from?

This abridged edition by Michael Gray condenses the original 40,000-word story into a fast-paced 24,000 words across 14 action-packed chapters—keeping all the mystery, danger, and detective work that Hardy Boys fans love, in a sharper, more thrilling listen for today’s audiences.
