the haunted bridge

just finished up #14 last night.
Here's a little snippet of what it was about:
Several riddles confront the young detective as she attempts to solve the mystery of the haunted bridge and track down a woman suspected of being a key member of the gang of jewel thieves.
Keene, C. (1972) The haunted bridge. New York: Grosset & Dunlap

Nancy wows everyone with her golfing skills (despite an injured hand). I rather enjoyed The Haunted Bridge. It was different in the fact that Nancy wasn't necessarily tracking down the crooks, there weren't really "bad guys" in this one, yet still a mystery and twist at the end.

I will heading over to Ellis Library today to pick up another 7 or 8 books!

I read The Whispering Statue earlier this week. Here are some things I learned which makes me think this one was written by a different author than others:
Nancy has a small terrier named "Togo"
The Drews live in a brick Colonial style house, which stood well back from the street.

Now, these bits of information may seem like nothing, but to not mention these details until #13? Where has Togo been prior to all these books?
