This was a pretty good Nancy Drew & Hardy Boys, not as good as some I've read. But whoever wrote it obviously just read a guidebook on New Orleans. Mistake No. 1: It's impossible to be pushed off a streetcar in New Orleans. They aren't open-air. (I guess you could try to shove someone out the window, but it would take quite a while and someone would definitely notice.) Nancy Drew could have never been pushed off one. No. 2: New Orleanians don't have southern accents! Sorry, no pleasant southern drawl here. Some have N'Awlins accents, but those aren't real common either. No.3: NO ONE USES VOODOO IN NEW ORLEAN numS! The only thing connected with voodoo is the voodoo museum, and that's just for tourists. No one I know has ever visited it. If you ask a New Orleanian anything about voodoo, they will either look at you blankly or laugh in your face. NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT VOODOO IN NEW ORLEAN numS! Okay, I'm done sounding off. This was a good book and I recommend it to anyone who likes Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys. The plot was unusual and the characters realistic. Just don't believe anything they say about New Orleans.

I'm a Keene reader.... I like how the book's suspense kept me from just skimming through the pages of the book. I just wish somehow that maybe Nancy's & Frank's romance would be more than him/her getting a little jealous of the other, and a warm feling here or there.
1 sugestion.... give them a bit more emotion and thought... Sure, solving the case is important(like all mysteries, it gets solved anyways), but it isn't everything a reader sometimes would like to read.

This book is very good. It's not just about mystery. You know how Nancy and Frank like each other? Well, in this book something happens. Not necessarily between them. A third and fourth person(s) may be involved. The plot was intriguing and suspenseful. It kept you guessing. I reccommend you read it.
