Volume #71 in the thrilling YA series featuring the sleuthing brothers Frank & Joe Hardy, who follow in th footsteps of their detective father & solve cases packed with mystery, excitement, & adventure! This is one of the later, highly collectible Wanderer Editions, in HARDCOVER, not the later trade paperback! A high number published in low quantities in the late 1970s-early 1980s, and a First Printing of the First Edition! Although it is an ex-lib copy, the markings are minimal: 1 stamp & 1 sticker in front matter, discolored space on ffep from old card pocket & old paper residue inside both front & back cover where DJ was affixed to boards. Else, condition is VG: very clean, binding strong & straight, hinges secure. Pages off-white with moderate tanning to edges. A few spots to lower fore edge outside.The unclipped DJ is a beauty, in VG+ condition as it has been protected under library mylar, which has been replaced with new. Only flaw is slight paper residue & scratching/color loss to lower spine from removal of old call number; else, extremely colorful & bright, no fading or wear, just very minor chipping at heel of spine!

Synopsis
Track of the Zombie is the title of a Hardy Boys Digest novel, written by Franklin W. Dixon. Sometimes it goes by the number of 71 in the series, a continuation of the original novels, and sometimes as the 13th, as it is the 13th published by Simon & Schuster after Grosset & Dunlap lost rights to publish new Hardy Boys books in 1979.
