Book Description

Publication Date: March 1, 1996

America's top teen detectives team up to find the bottom line in a murderous financial dispute.

Nancy Drew and her father, Carson, have come to Philadelphia to attend a meeting of the Vidocq Society, a group dedicated to the investigation of unsolved crimes. One of Carson's clients, Buff Bellamy, was recently tried for the slaying of Laurel Kenway, the ward of his uncle, real estate king Stafford Bellamy. Carson managed to get his client off on a technicality, but everyone -- except the Drews -- believes Buff got away with murder. Nancy's out to prove his innocence...beyond a question of a doubt.

Meanwhile...

Frank and Joe Hardy, and their father, Fenton, have come to the same meeting. Why? To prove beyond a doubt that Buff is guilty. Fenton investigated the crime, and the brothers found the evidence that convinced the district attorney to bring Buff to trial. It's a high-profile case in which Nancy, Frank, and Joe all have something to lose. But they all want the same thing. To find the real killer...

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.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: A Question of Guilt (Nancy Drew & Hardy Boys Super Mysteries #26) (Turtleback)

Get out of the way Joe, Nancy is here. This book has to be one of the best. In this book, Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys act like pros. That is untill Joe let's his personal feelings in the way. He actually hated Nancy!!! Read this book to see what I'm talking about. I recommend this book to anybody who loves a good mystery.

By A Customer

This review is from: A Question of Guilt (Nancy Drew & Hardy Boys Super Mysteries #26) (Paperback)

This is one of thebest in the series (I've read them all.) Nancy and JOe go one on one through the whole thing. Nancy's trying to prove that her friend Buff Bellamy isn't a murderer, and guess who's trying to prove that he is. Joe and Frank!! Joe is really convinced he did it, Nancy isn't and Frank is stuck in the middle. This book is really exciting, and full of unexpected twists. YOu won't put it down until your done. READ IT!

This review is from: A Question of Guilt (Nancy Drew & Hardy Boys Super Mysteries #26) (Paperback)

Hi! I think everyone will love this book but to bad it didn't really have any of that Nancy/Frank stuff but thats ok because Nancy and Joe really don't like each other but i won't tell you anymore then that.

My favorite part is when Joe does the polygraph test. (thats to see if someone is lieing or not)you should see what Nancy askes Joe but I'm not going to tell you but if you want to find out more about the book e-mail me at [e-mail]
