I couldn’t wait to explore, try the world-famous maple syrup, and of course, go sailing at my friend Megan’s new club and resort! It was my first trip to Vermont, one of the smallest and least populated states in the country. All at once, I could see green hills, fields dotted with farms, and our ultimate destination: the clear blue waters of Lake Champlain.
I pressed my face against the small oval window. THE AIRPLANE MADE A WIDE turn as it descended through the clouds toward Burlington International Airport. But first, Nancy and her friends will have to make it back to shore in one piece… ExcerptĬhapter One: Mystery with a Side of Maple Syrup CHAPTER ONE Mystery with a Side of Maple Syrup Unraveling the mystery of Captain Stone’s treasure will be the key to finding out who’s been sabotaging Grace’s club. But it isn’t a ghost that punches a hole in Nancy’s sailboat, leaving her and the girls to sink in the middle of the lake when an unexpected summer storm rolls in.
Legend has it that Captain Stone’s ghost still haunts the property, guarding the treasure he buried there. Is someone trying to sabotage the club, and could it have anything to do with the fire that destroyed the old resort twenty years ago?Īs Nancy tries to pry information from the tight-lipped locals, all clues lead back to Captain Richard Stone, the enigmatic Revolutionary War–era pirate whose tavern once stood on the same site as the resort and sailing club. But when they arrive, they learn there have been some strange things happening on the property, from missing items to holes dug all over the yard. When a family friend, Grace, opens a sailing club on Lake Champlain at the former site of the Gemstone Islands Resort, Nancy, Bess, and George are invited to enjoy a few days of boating before the club’s official grand opening. Nancy’s sailing trip to Vermont turns into a hunt for a ghostly saboteur’s lost treasure in the twenty-fourth book in the Nancy Drew Diaries, a fresh approach to a classic series.
