The Clue in the Embers is the thirty-fifth volume in the original The Hardy Boys series of mystery books for children and teens published by Grosset & Dunlap.
This book was written for the Stratemeyer Syndicate by John Almquist in 1955. 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. The original version of this book was shortened in 1972 by Priscilla Baker-Carr resulting in two slightly different stories sharing the same title.
