Bookroo's summary

When their father vanishes during a magician's act, Frank and Joe Hardy suspect foul play. As they delve deeper, they join forces with SKOOL, a secret agency battling the spy network UGLI. Racing against time, the brothers must unravel the mystery and uncover the truth behind the vanishing act. Will they find their father before it's too late, or is he lost forever in a world of espionage and deceit? The stakes rise as they confront danger and deception, culminating in a thrilling showdown aboard Flight 101.

From the publisher

Rarely do magicians reveal their professional secrets. Consequently Frank and Joe Hardy are amazed when a well-known magician, the Incredible Hexton, offers to reveal the secret of his “Vanishing Man Act” and invited Mr. Hardy to be the subject. When their detective father fails to reappear, his sons are convinced that something sinister is afoot, despite Hexton’s insistence that Mr. Hardy is playing a joke on them. While desperately searching for their father, Frank and Joe find themselves working with SKOOL, a U.S. organization of secret agents pitted against UGLI, an international ring of spies stealing government secrets domestically and internationally. The young detective’s gripping adventures culminate in a dramatic climax when they unmask the secret agent on Flight 101.
