The Secret of Mirror Bay (Nancy Drew)

Nancy, Bess and George are invited by Aunt Eloise to stay at a cabin on Mirror Bay near Cooperstown, N.Y. where there have been recent sightings of a woman gliding on the water of the bay. Nancy sets out to investigate the mysterious woman, but soon is faced with numerous other mysteries, including a vacation scam perpetrated by a woman who bears a resemblance to Nancy; the search for an old carriage, sealed in a box and sunk in the bay many years ago; and a strange green-glowing wizard that lives on a nearby mountain. This wasn't a bad book and it is easily one of the better books from #35 up (most of which are garbage). Nancy has many mysteries to solve and they are fairly interesting. The book has a not bad amount of action and it isn't as poorly written as some of the other books put out at that time. One thing that I didn't care for with this book, was that Nancy resembled the woman involved in the vacation scam. This is a tired plot device that has been featured more than once in this series. Generally, I did enjoy this book; it wasn't one of the most exciting books I've ever read, but I would recommend reading it.

I'm a collector of Nancy Drew mysteries and this is one of my favorites. The idea of the grieving royal family burying their dead child's favorite toys in a lake is a sad and intriguing plot and the circumstances under which Nancy solves the case make for a great read. I love the original ND series, but even I think that some of them are better than others, and this is one of the better ones.

Have always enjoyed Nancy Drew books since i was a child!

I love mystery books that's wayt buy Nancy Drew books.

I bought this book for my 10 year old grandaughter who has read just about all of the series. She loved it!

Nancy goes to Mirror Bay for a short vacation but is instantly plunged into full of mysterious going-ons. When she arrives, she is mistaken for an evil, cunning swindler that looks just like her! She finds a friend in Yo, who takes her around the place. Together with all her friends, they see spooky apparitions and other creeps and crooks. They also attempt to find a baby's long-lost royal carriage, sunk deep inside the bay. The ending is an unforgettable experience where all loose ends are tied up.
I strongly recommend you this fantastic book which should appeal to all Nancy Drew fans!

This book at first was interesting, but I didn't like it at all toward the end. I suggest Nancy Drew and the Clue of the Whistling bagpipes. It is one of my favorite books!
