I would recommend this novel to children like me who enjoy reading books that keep them guessing how the plot might unfold. Although the books have modernised over time, Nancy still remains the same daring, heroic and witty sleuth in all the novels. The Nancy Drew series is a well-known classic but the novels are quite difficult to find in shops. Not only does she have to find out who the villain (or several as the case may be) is, she has to find out why Leslie is missing and how she can help. Unlike the fabulous Ruby Redfort, which has all sorts of codes in it and the villain is always Count Von Viscount, Nancy's mysteries are somewhat different. I have always enjoyed the Nancy Drew books because not only is she part of my favourite genre (detective and crime) she is also one of my main female heroines in books - combining brains and adventure. But things have proved harder than they seemed as no one, not even Leslie's parents are admitting that she is missing! Can Nancy's logic win through before it's too late? Will there be a happy ending for EVERYONE? Nancy and her friends Ned, Georgia and Bess are determined to find Leslie before her exam and the election.
