Nancy Drew and her best friends, Bess and George, have only sun, boys, and surf on their minds, when they head to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, for a week of fun. Who knew that they should be expecting attempted murder. Nancy, George, and Bess soon find out that their friend, Kim, who's already been vacationing in Ft. Lauderdale for a week, has been struck during a hit-and-run, on purpose. Now, as Kim lies in a hospital bed close to death, Nancy sets out to find the murderer, and she only has one clue to go by, the name "Rosita," which is what Kim said to Nancy just before she lost consciousness. Suddenly, Nancy finds herself thrown into a whirwind of murder and deceit, and realizes that there is now a new target. And that's Nancy herself.
Keene has succeeded in creating another enjoyable and mysterious tale, featuring everyone's favorite teenage sleuth, Nancy Drew. Teens will relish in the descriptions of sunny beaches, and handsome guys, but will also feel that they are a part of the mystery, by trying to solve it before Nancy does. An exciting thriller for all crime-solving teens.

In this Nancy Drew book Nancy finds herself yet again trying to take a vacation with her friends Bess and George,and as always Nancy's vacation is going to take a turn for the worst when one of her friends (not Bess or George) is involved in a hit-and-run. Before Nancy's friend, Kim, falls unconscious she manages to mumble some words to Nancy. The words Kim mumbled were "Rosita...The...it was...Rosita.", Nancy didn't have much to go on but she knew that the hit-and-run intentional. She had to find out who had ran Kim down and why. Once again Nancy Drew was on the case. The thing I found interesting about this book is that it took place mainly on the beachs of sunny Florida to the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. The weird thing is that I hate movies and books dealing with captivity on boats or anything dealing with the ocean. This however was a very interesting book that kept me on edge. I really was kept on edge when Nancy was tied to a piler by a man who had knocked her out with a blow to the head. I thought it was very discriptive on telling how Nancy was able to get untied and on the pier before she drowned. There were many characters in the story that I couldn't decide whether they were good or bad. One of the main characters that really got me stuck was Dirk Bowman. He was one of the new guys Bess had picked up. At very first he seemed to be good then he started hitting on Nancy and hurt Bess emotionally. Then he took Nancy to a secluded island where I thought he was going to try to kill her, which actually almost happened when her windsurfer broke in half. But later in the book I learned that he was an under cover cop who was trying to solve the same case Nancy was working on. Not only is the book about Nancy's friend being hit by a car but it's also about Kim helping an illegal alien escape the hardship of working on a orchard for the lady that smuggled her into the country. The story unfolds in telling all the details about who and why Kim was almost killed. I recommend this book to any Nancy Drew fan and even to those that just like mysteries.
