Excerpt/First Sentence(s):
"I can smell the ocean!"¯ eight-year-old Nancy Drew exclaimed as she rolled down the car window.
"I can hear seagulls!"¯ George Fayne added excitedly.
"I can see the ice-cream stand!"¯ George's cousin Bess Marvin piped up. "Can we stop, Mr. Drew? Pleeeeeease?"¯
"Pleeeeeease?"¯ Nancy and George chimed in.
Laughing, Carson Drew made a right turn onto Neptune Street. "I promise we can go later. I don't want to spoil your appetites for dinner."¯
"Okay, Daddy,"¯ Nancy said. "Are we eating at their house? Or at a restaurant?"¯
"Their house is a hotel, so I'm not sure,"¯ the Drews' housekeeper, Hannah Gruen, said. She was in the passenger seat next to Carson, with a road map spread out across her lap. "There it is, on the right,"¯ she added, pointing. "Oh my gosh, it's beautiful!"¯
Nancy craned her neck for a better look. Ahead of them was a big Victorian mansion. It was pale blue with purple shutters, and it had a gold weather vane on top in the shape of a mermaid. The sign in front read: MERMAID INN, 1879.
