Produktbeschreibung
A quiet summer getaway turns into a high-stakes case of identity theft, sabotage, and stolen treasures in this fourth adventure featuring the world's most beloved girl detective. When a string of bizarre incidents disrupts preparations at the elegant Lilac Inn-cryptic warnings, vanishing heirlooms, mysterious lights beneath the water, and a stranger impersonating Nancy herself-the search for answers becomes a race against time. As danger closes in, she confronts sinister plots, double identities, underwater peril, and carefully planted clues that point to a crime far bigger than anyone imagined. With her trademark mix of bravery, intelligence, intuition, and deductive skill, she pieces the mystery together from silent footprints, coded notes, and suspicious guests who know more than they admit. Perfect for fans of classic detective fiction, girl-detective adventures, gothic suspense, and Golden Age mysteries, The Mystery at Lilac Inn delivers everything readers love about the series-clue-by-clue investigation, atmospheric settings, emotional stakes, and a heroine who refuses to back down. A cornerstone of 20th-century mystery literature, newly available in the public domain and ideal for collectors, libraries, classroom libraries, homeschool reading, YA mystery fans, and lovers of vintage whodunits and suspenseful puzzle-solving.
Autorenporträt
Mildred Wirt Benson (1905-2002) writing as Carolyn Keene was an American writer and reporter whose contributions to early twentieth-century popular literature, most notably Nancy Drew Mysteries, helped redefine the image of the young female protagonist in American fiction. A graduate of the University of Iowa, where she became one of the first women in the nation to earn a master's degree in journalism, Benson authored dozens of juvenile novels and later enjoyed a long career as a newspaper journalist. Working anonymously for the Stratemeyer Syndicate, she completed the initial manuscripts that introduced a now-iconic girl detective, Nancy Drew, to readers worldwide. Today, her work is recognized for its role in expanding opportunities for young female characters in literature and inspiring new generations of writers and readers.
