The Mystery of the 99 Steps (Nancy Drew Mystery Stories, Book 43) by Carolyn Keene
Reader Reviews Nancy and pals sleuthing in France, November 9, 2002 Reviewer: Karen Sampson Hudson from Reno, NV United States "The Mystery of the 99 Steps" finds Nancy, her father Carson Drew, and her friends Bess and George on a trip to France. In between touring Notre Dame Cathedral and learning about the patron saint of France, Joan of Arc, the girls stay on the trail of a mystery. Several times Nancy is warned by srange characters to stop her investigations, but she persists and is rewarded by uncovering a blackmail scheme involving one of her father's clients, wealthy financier Monsieur LeBlanc. Carolyn Keene found the right formula many years ago to thrill young readers and to secure their loyalty as lifelong fans. Courageous, resourceful Nancy charms successive generations. Highly recommended.
