Dangerous Plays (Nancy Drew: All New Girl Detective #16) [Paperback]

Carolyn Keene (Author)

Book Description

Dad, Bess, and I are all set for London when Ned's Shakespeare professor asks us to do a simple favor: to take a look at his townhouse while we're there, since he can't seem to locate the housekeeper and fears something's wrong. Sounds easy enough, so I take the key.

Eager to cross the favor off our list, we stop by 53 Banbury Square shortly after we land. And let's just say things in the townhouse aren't quite tip-top. And the key? Well, it unlocks a Pandora's box of serious trouble.

More About the Author

Carolyn Keene and Franklin W. Dixon are the pseudonyms under which many ghostwriters penned the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys series, respectively. Both series were created by Edward Stratemeyer, founder of the Stratemeyer Syndicate book packaging firm, in the late 1920s and early 1930s.

Stratemeyer's daughter, Harriet, and syndicate writer Mildred Wirt Benson were the two people primarily responsible for bringing the iconic character of Nancy Drew to life in the minds and hearts of millions of readers around the world.

I have the whole collection of the original Nancy Drew books from when I was a little girl (in hard back). I tried to get my daughter interested in them but they are rather "old school". When I found out there were a new version I got the first four and she loved them! We've been working on the new collection and I order more as she finishs them. She loves them! I recommend these to any little girl (or boy) who loves a mystery.
