Bookroo's summary
Frank and Joe Hardy face a dual mystery: an eighteen-year-old girl vanishes, possibly joining a cult, while a comic book character, Apeman, wreaks havoc in Bayport. As they delve deeper, the brothers uncover a cunning plot by a gang of crooks. Can they connect the dots between the missing girl and the destructive doppelgänger before it's too late? With danger lurking at every turn, the Hardy Boys must use their wits to solve these intertwined cases and restore peace to their town. Will they succeed, or will the clever criminals outsmart them?
