Nancy Drew Girl Detective™: Framed (by Carolyn Keene)

NANCY DREW GIRLD DETECTIVE™: FRAMED by Carolyn Keene (unabridged) is presented by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see FEATURES, below).

“Rebecca Rogers portrays Nancy and her friends with the keenness of teenagers….[She] provides a clear and steady pace suitable for young listeners.” (AudioFile)

When a prince from a minor royal family arrives in River Heights, it’s big news. Then the headlines get even bigger when the prince is suspected of stealing a painting. Nancy Drew has a hunch there’s more to this—ahem—picture. But can she save the prince before he’s wrongfully crowned “criminal”?

A prince is in River Heights. A prince! Granted, he’s from a relatively minor royal family, but still. This is big news.

The headlines get even bigger once the prince is found toting a painting for his family’s good friend, Mrs. Mahoney—because within hours of his arrival, the federal authorities arrest him. They suspect he stole the painting from his family.

Dad and I aren’t buying it. We have a hunch there’s more to this—ahem—picture. But can we save the prince before he’s wrongfully crowned “criminal”?
