Vans & Villains

By Carolyn Keene

Nancy, Bess, and George embark on an ill-fated cross-country road trip in the twenty-seventh Nancy Drew Diaries, a fresh approach to a classic series.

When George wins an exciting contest from her favorite van life influencers to transport their camper van from Chicago to Los Angeles, she naturally invites Nancy and Bess along to live out her van life fantasies for seven days.

But things quickly go sideways for the girls, from bad weather to mechanical problems, leading to personality clashes in a small, closed space. Worse yet, Nancy feels like someone is following them. Could someone be trying to sabotage the trip? Or is Nancy so used to solving mysteries that she's starting to see villains where there are none?

Nancy had better figure it out quickly if their road trip--and their friendship--is going to survive the chaos.
