great children's book, a real classic.

Love Nancy Drew. The early ones feature some characters who disappeared as the 'main cast' took shape, so I enjoyed Nancy's gushing over a boy that wasn't Ned. Also, no Bess and George. Fun, mysterious, and just as wholesome as Keene's publishers required. She wrote another series with a sassier girl, but it never got quite the amount of attention Nancy did.

I was a huge Nancy Drew fan and loved her mysteries. Since my library has many books that I read as a child, I thought I'd revisit some of them.

Nancy receives a warning that her father's life may be in danger. Carson Drew tells her there is nothing to worry about; someone was just trying to scare them. So when Nancy's friend, Helen, invites her to go with her to visit her aunt and grandmother, Nancy decides to tag along. When they arrive, they find that the inhabitants are very nervous. Small items have been disappearing from the home. They also hear mysterious noises and believe the house may be haunted. It's up to Nancy to figure out if someone is hiding in the old house and trying to scare the people who live there.

This was a solid mystery narrated by Laura Linney. It brought back a lot of memories. My rating: 4 Stars.

I love mysteries about "haunted houses", and this one did not fail that curiosity. I love Nancy Drew!
