- Synopsis
- From the back of the book Danger pay Frank and Joe go undercover as apprentice stuntmen on a major movie. They've been asked to investigate a number of serious accidents that have delayed filming. Right from the first scene the action gets rough. Frank's stunt misfires, and the next one turns into a flaming disaster. The Hardys are certain it's deliberate sabotage. But the young detectives find the real drama is off the set when they become involved in a bizarre plot to steal a fortune. Unfortunately, they get themselves arrested! The brothers must break out of jail fast-or lose their only chance to be cleared of a million-dollar frame-up. ================ From inside the book: STUNT TARGET Frank raced the red Porsche across the smooth green lawn. No sabotage here, he thought as the restraining cable caught, stopping the car. "That's a wrap," the director said, nodding happily. "But let's take one more for insurance. Action!" Frank floored the gas pedal and aimed the car for the house. Right on cue, Janet came out the door and onto the porch. She pretended to freeze in horror. The Porsche reached the foot of the steps, and Frank waited for the cable's jerk. It didn't come! He stomped on the brakes, but the pedal sank to the floor. The car plunged ahead, smashing into the first brick step. Frank's hands were nearly thrown from the wheel. It took everything he had to fight the out-of-control car. But even as he battled the steering wheel, the car hurtled up the steps, straight for Janet!
