Nancy, along with friends George and Bess, spends a weekend in the hamlet of Avondale. But their weekend turns out to be far from the relaxing retreat the girls had planned.

Overhearing a few local girls commenting about the fire, Nancy is soon in gear trying to solve another mystery. Who would want to burn down the bookstore and why?

Interestingly, the mysteries occurring in town and to Nancy and her friends are all plots of various books by Lacey O'Brien.
