Bookroo's summary

Frank and Joe Hardy race against time to solve the mystery of their father's kidnapping and a sabotage plot in the Kentucky wilderness. After their detective father escapes, he utters the cryptic word “Felix,” leading the brothers to a stolen dossier of a notorious ex-convict. Their investigation takes them from New York City to a cemetery, and finally to a highway construction site in Kentucky. With a spiral symbol as their only clue, the Hardy Boys must unravel the mystery before the criminals strike again. Will they succeed in bringing the culprits to justice?
