Yet another mystery is solved by detective Nancy Drew. This book will be enjoyed by adults and children alike who are into mysteries.

In this book, Nancy investigates a 'nursing home' that may be forcing its patients to stay or participate in experiments they don't welcome - and Nancy's going to find out the truth!

Beautiful glossy gift book.

Nancy's dad Carson gives Nancy a new black and green roadster for her birthday (she gets it early as she needs to evade some thugs who have been spying on the house and they would have recognized her old maroon roadster.) Then she speeds off to Sylvan Lake to join Helen Corning and her parents at the much larger cottage they have taken this summer. Ned Nickerson is also there and Nancy is the belle of the Yacht Club dance, in addition to beating the pants off the snooty "amateur swim champion" who instigated a diving competition because she resented Nancy getting all the male attention on the swim platform. She also wins the adulation of everyone at the lake when she rescues a tot who falls in the water in front of a speedboat, but is duely modest about it, considering that the little girl fell in as a result of Nancy's having questioned her after hearing her name. Nancy and Helen enjoy a few luxurious rides in the splendid new machine as they search for a remote estate surrounded by larkspurs/delphiniums to solve the mystery Nancy stumbled upon as she happened to drive by a car that mysteriously had the windows up even though the weather was clear .Nancy actually falls into dire straits but, fortunately, had the foresight to call Ned beforehand so he could fly in with some burly pals (and Carson, who just happened to be at the local airport as they were about to take off in the nick of time to thwart the evildoers who were bilking wealthy older women. Nancy also won 1st place for her flower arrangement of larkspurs at the Blenheim Flower Show.
