The Flickering Torch Mystery is Volume 22 in the original Hardy Boys book series published by Grosset & Dunlap.
When two suspicious plane accidents occur near Marlin Crag Airport, the two Hardy brothers investigate the case and find themselves in greater danger than they anticipated. This involves investigating a restaurant with a guitar combo, the Flickering Torch, and smashing an illegal plot to make industrial diamonds using uranium isotopes from smuggled coal from the United Kingdom.
