Purple lights click off, a huge whoosh emanates from the floor, loud music pulses . . . . G-Force is awesome and exhilarating from start to finish. But while everyone is screaming their heads off, a young girl disappears into thin air - right in the middle of the ride! The fun has stopped, and now Frank and Joe have to solve this terrifying vanishing act. Into Thin Air When the daughter of an amusement-park owner goes missing, it's anything but fun and games in this Hardy Boys adventure-a new take on the classic series. Franklin W. Dixon is the pen name used by a variety of different authors (Leslie McFarlane, a Canadian author being the first) who wrote The Hardy Boys novels.
