When I was growing up, more than anything else, I wanted a Nancy Drew book for Christmas. The books from my childhood that I remember most are my Nancy Drew's and my cool older brother's James Bond novels. So, when I grew up and started writing my own books, I thought, "What would happen if Nancy met James Bond? What would happen if she went to London on vacation, and Daniel Craig was staying in the same hotel as she was? What if his acting award was stolen out of his room and she helped him find out who took it?"
I answer these questions in a The Stolen Mask, a humorous, PG-Rated tale written for nostalgic baby-boomers who grew up loving Nancy Drew Mysteries. The teenage sleuth in my story is Nancy Keene and when she isn't on a Jane Austen pilgrimage or visiting Buckingham Palace, she channels Agatha Christie, Sherlock Holmes, and Rumpole of the Bailey to help her solve the mystery of the stolen mask.
