Ned and Nancy track down a ghostly saboteur in the twenty-third book in the Nancy Drew Diaries series, a fresh approach to a classic series.
Nancy and Ned are visiting Coffin Hall, an estate turned rare books library, doing research on the librarydsquo;s rumored ghost for an episode of the NedTalks podcast when a fire breaks out in the records room. One of the libraryosquo;s security guards accuses Ned of arson—after all, he was the only one in the room when the fire started—but Ned swears it wasn!squo;t him. He was trying to stop the fire. He tells Nancy he saw a lady in blue right before the incident, and thinks it was Henrietta Coffin, the ghost of Coffin Hall!
Nancy is confident her boyfriend is innocent, and shessquo;s determined to identify the real culprit, though shelsquo;s pretty sure it wasnysquo;t of the paranormal sort. When she investigates further, she learns that the fire was just the latest in a string of recent strange and inexplicable incidents plaguing Coffin Hall.
It squo;s increasingly apparent that someone has more than a passing interest in shutting down the library. But who—or what—is responsible? And why?
