The Phantom of Pine Hill

Book 42 of the Nancy Drew series

Nancy, Bess and George visit Emerson for the university's summer festivities. The girls are guests in a historic mansion on Pine Hill. Upon arriving, their host tells about the phantom haunting the mansion's library. He also relates his family's decades old saga of a lost French wedding gown and valuable gifts that went to the bottom of a nearby cove in the sinking of the Lucy Belle. Is there connection between the phantom and the old ship disaster? Nancy and her friends work diligently to solve the mystery of Pine Hill and to find the long-lost wedding treasures. This book is the original text. A revised text does not exist.
