Nancy and Helen visit a charming old inn, recently purchased by friends. Soon after her arrival at Lilac Inn, Nancy discovers someone is impersonating her! The young detective’s enemy alters her appearance to resemble Nancy and uses stolen identification! When Emily Willoughby's diamonds are stolen, Nancy is determined to find Emily's inheritance. A mysterious ghostly figure roaming Lilac Inn's grounds, a strange message with the phrase “blue pipes,” and other unexplained incidents lead credence to the belief that the inn is actually jinxed! This revised text is a new plot from the 1930 original text. Some of the same or similar character names remain.
Mystery Mondays is a sometimes weekly, sometimes biweekly and sometimes monthly review feature hosted by Words of Mystery that showcases books in the mystery (and on occasion thriller) genre that we are currently reading and our thoughts on them.
I know I usually share the Nancy drew reviews the same day as A Simply Enchanted Life but last week I just never got to this book! So here it is, Its a week late but thats better than not at all.
This one had more adventure and danger than the last three. I liked that and even though I read this one so so so many years ago it still left me trying to puzzle it all out along with Nancy. This one had none of what I’ve complained about in the past…people liking and trusting her immediately, so that was a nice change. I would definitely reread this one again and I seriously can’t wait to have my daughter read these cause i bet she’d love than.
