NANCY DREW AND THE BUNGALOW MYSTERY SPOILER FREE REVIEW

 TW: Loss of family members and an explosion mentioned

This is the 3rd Nancy Drew book overall!

The story begins with Nancy and her friend Helen almost getting shipwrecked on a lake during a thunderstorm. They are rescued by a girl named Laura Pendleton, who is currently going through some tough times since she lost her parents and will be going to live with new guardians who were good friends of her parents, named the Aborns. The Aborns are not very friendly people, and Laura needs Nancy and Helen's help with dealing with them, especially since she suspects they are out for her family fortune and jewelry. The three girls stay in a bungalow near the lake while they wait for the storm to subside, and Nancy leaves a note to the owner thanking them for using their property, even though she has no idea who they are, and part of the mystery is figuring out who the owner of the bungalow is. Later, Nancy gets a new mystery to solve from her father who is dealing with a case with several thefts from the bank, that might even be tied with Laura's guardians trying to steal her money, too. 

Well, what can I say but it's another mystery story that will have you on the edge of your seat! 5 stars from me. 

I should warn you there is another trigger warning for a car explosion towards the end of the story. Don't worry, everyone survives although with a few minor injuries. 

I will be reading and reviewing the 4th book, The Mystery at Lilac Inn, sometime very soon!
