The Stone Idol is the title of a Hardy Boys Digest novel, written by Franklin W. Dixon. Sometimes it goes by the number of 65 in the series, a continuation of the original novels, and sometimes as the 7th, as it is the 7th published by Simon & Schuster after Grosset & Dunlap lost rights to publish new Hardy Boys books in 1979.
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
When an ancient stone idol disappears, the Hardy Boys are off on another fast-paced adventure. It's a mystery that takes the boys from a primitive village in the Andes Mountains to Antarctica and finally to Easter Island. By using their fine investigative skills, the Hardy Boys find that the mystery of the stone idol is not what it seems!
