4 of 4 people found the following review helpful Original Flickering Torch, By Scott Thiel (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews This review is from: The Flickering Torch Mystery (Hardy Boys, Book 22) (Hardcover) After a brief absence, Leslie McFarlane returns for his second stint with "The Hardy Boys". He begins with a bang. The brothers are asked to investigate strange happenings at an Experimental Farm in Bayport. The majority of this book takes place at night and in part in underground tunnels. Unknown figures roaming about the farm hidden beneath black cloaks add an element of suspense. This book has a spooky feel and one that draws the reader from page to page. This book ranks among the series elite. RATED AREVISION: The 1971 totally altered revision of this book with a completely new story was excellent, packed with pure suspense and a tough case to crack about two murders. Even the revision of this book ranks among my favorites and one of the best revisions in the series. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful Great Book, By Jack Perkins "Jack" (Seattle, WA, USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: The Flickering Torch Mystery (Hardy Boys, Book 22) (Hardcover) This is one of the greatest Hardy boy bnooks.

The mystery also involves a radioactive substance, which foreshadows some of the concerns we have several decades later.Fenton Hardy, the boys' father, has run into difficulties in trying to solve the crashes of two light planes into the cliffs adjacent to Marlin Crag Airport near Beemerville. Both pilots were landing from the sea in bad weather using instruments. However, both pilots were experienced. Fenton asks the boys to look around Marlin Crag airport to see if they can learn anything. In the meantime, Fenton will be investigating a ring of freight thieves who have been stealing from airports. As you might guess, there is a connection between the cases.
