Terrible news! The newspaper reports that a plane has crashed on the deck of the 'Balaska', their Uncle's ship, and injured several passengers. A telegram is delivered that day to inform Lettie Briggs that one of those (minorly) injured was her father. The telegram giving the news is delivered by th...
'The Secret at the Hermitage' wastes no time in signalling to the reader that there are changes afoot. Louise and Jean are relaxing in their room after classes joking about an item in the paper. Jean is "sprawled" on the window seat and is described as "inclining to boyishness". A suddenly cheeky Ev...
Returning home from a carnival with George and Bess, Nancy only has time to briefly admire a house they pass before it bursts into flames. The girls are the first people on the scene, but the heat of the fire is so intense there's no question of getting inside to discover if there are people trapped...
Nancy is not investigating the Ku Klux Klan, instead it is a "nature cult" that is renting outlying property attached to the struggling Red Gate Farm. Cover confusion aside, this was a pretty solid book and, even though one of our villains is half-Chinese, there isn't any reflexive racism. Progress?...
I'm probably being a little harsh with the rating here, as this, like 'The Bungalow Mystery' had no objectionable content like other unrevised volumes.

Very interesting approach to mystery/crime solving: Nancy knows almost right from the beginning who the bad guy is, she just has to figure out how to prove it. However, I'm not sure if it's that I've never been all that big a fan of mysteries anyway, or something else, but I found this approach mad...
Another Nancy Drew mystery. When Nancy, Bess and George go to stay at Bess and George's aunt and uncle's ranch house in Arizona, Strange things are happening. A "phantom" horse has been seen on the property and each time it appears, disaster strikes. Then, Nancy learns of the Legend of a Dirk Valent...
