How do you keep cool when life is getting hotter by the minute? That's the question Nancy's asking, and she's having a tough time finding an answer. Like Bess, television star Casey Fontaine is pledging Kappa, and the whole sorority is in an uproar. The reason is, Casey's getting special treatment, and there could be an investigation...meaning Kappa is in serious danger of losing its charter.
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.
