Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
If I told you I was worried about George's health because she's taken up fencing, you's laugh. Foils yesterday are totally safe, and the gear is padded besides. Right?
Well, if so, why did I see blood at George's very first meet? Skewering isn't in the legal fencing repertoire -- but it soon becomes apparent to me that someone's too fired up to care...

This book was one of the best of the new Nancy Drew books. Although Nancy doesn't face many bad times herself, some others get in some serious situations! The culpret was not who I thought it would be. But it got more obvious towards the end of the book. The new Nancy Drew books aren't that good due to a bad reason for the crime, but this is one of the better ones alltogether!

Not like I have to have a bloody corpse in every mystery I read, but when the most harrowing incident in the entire book is a scratched wrist that requires a band-aid -- well, let's just say that there isn't much drama between these covers.
The characters? So many flavors of cardboard. The emotional palette stretches from chirpy to pouty and back again. The "modern" Nancy Drew has no more depth than her older namesake.
On the plus side, the book is well-written, reads easily, and the mystery worked -- I didn't guess the outcome in advance, but once it was unveiled, it made good sense.
For better mysteries, I would recommend Zilpha Keatley Snyder.
