The Crisscross Shadow is the thirty-second volume in the original The Hardy Boys series of mystery books for children and teens published by Grosset & Dunlap.

Contents

This book was written for the Stratemeyer Syndicate by Richard Cohen in 1953. [1] Between 1959 and 1973 the first 38 volumes of this series were systematically revised as part of a project directed by Harriet Adams, Edward Stratemeyer's daughter. [2] The original version of this book was shortened in 1969 by Priscilla Baker-Carr [1] resulting in two slightly different stories sharing the same title.

Plot summary

The Hardy boys find the missing deed to an Indian's land, prevent a phony salesman from carrying through a reckless scheme, and help their father solve a top-secret sabotage case.
