Who snagged the key to the city?

What's more fun that a big Christmas celebration? It's even more exciting this year for Nancy, Bess and George in River Heights this year. There is going to be a big Holiday Streetwalk and everyone wants to participate. People will be singing favorite Christmas carols while enjoying hot cider and cookies. For the piece de resistance, the Mayor of River Heights will be there to turn on the holiday lights, officially opening the festivities. What a great scene for Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus to arrive to by horse-drawn sleigh, as everyone cheers. This year, a special child has been appointed to hand the key to the city to Santa, himself. This year the lucky child is Bess, who can't wait for the big moment to arrive as TV cameras record it all! However, it's apparent that not everyone is glad for Bess. The special key disappears, and the list of suspects and clues starts to mount. Can Nancy Drew use her trusty blue notebook to crack the case of The Old-fashioned Mystery before the parade passes by? Carolyn Keene has written a wonderful Christmas mystery that her young fans will absolutely love -- and send them to the book shelves clamoring for more!
