Nancy Drew 17 in Stores this Week!

Hi Everyone!

This is editorial assistant Mike Petranek here to tell you about a new two-part story in NANCY DREW entitled “The Secret Within.” The first part is in NANCY DREW #17 “Night of the Living Chatchke,” in stores this week! Here’s the colorful cover by Sho Murase:

Hey, did you go anywhere exciting for spring break this year? Perhaps you may be thinking about a trip this summer? Well, in this story, Nancy travels to Turkey with her father, attorney Carson Drew, who has been hired to negotiate the sale of a client’s ancestral estate.  Not only that, but Nancy is without her best friends George and Bess for this adventure. But as everyone knows, wherever Nancy goes, she’s sure to stumble upon a mystery. Her father Carson has taken quite a liking to his client, the beautiful Ms. Alda Oktar. When the three are browsing at a large Turkish bazaar, Alda takes a liking to an old statue that Nancy finds less than attractive, to say the least. Carson buys the statue and arranges to have it sent to Alda’s home. Once Nancy and Carson settle into their rooms at the estate, along with the funky looking statue, weird things start to happen… Which makes us wonder:

Once things start going “bump” and, oddly enough, “pop!” in the night, it’s up to the Girl Detective to investigate. And that leads her to an amazing discovery! What is it that Nancy finds? The answer’s in NANCY DREW Graphic Novel #17 – available at booksellers everywhere. If you want you can even order directly from Papercutz.

Haunted Statues and Nancy Drew! Part one of “The Secret Within” is a fun way to kick off the start of May.  So check it out, post your comments here, and watch out for Papercutz!
