I remember reading these, and the Hardy Boys, when I was a child and liking them a great deal. Reading them now, as a adult, they just aren't very entertaining or interesting. The writing is often flat, the mystery is revealed by the title, and the characters are in no way relatable. ( ) This edition has both the first and second book of the series in it. #1 This particular story finds Nancy involved in a search for a missing will. She is assisted in this by her father, who is a noted attorney, and by her older friend Helen Corning. (The re-occuring characters of George, Bess, and Ned do not appear in the earliest books.) As her investigation progresses she not only finds herself at odds with unworthy heirs, but confronting furniture thieves as well. #2 In this particular story, Nancy is asked to investigate a supposed haunting at Twin Elms, a colonal mansion occupied by the elderly Miss Flora and her daughter Rosemary: not only have things gone bump in the night, jewelry has come up missing as well. She is assisted in this by her friend Helen, who is Rosemary's niece. Meanwhile Nancy's father, attorney Carson Drew, is working to defeat the shady dealings of the mysterious Mr. Gombet. Needless to say, before too long the two cases begin to link up. I can't remember reading these books as a kid, though I think I must have read one or two. Barnes and Noble had the first two books available as a set, fer cheap, so I decided to indulge my inner 11-year-old-on-summer-vacation. The novel is ... cute. It's kind of campy? I mean, who talks like Nancy Drew? So proper! But it's adorable and fun and made me want to curl up under the covers with a flashlight and a cat to read it. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
