Maris (8 KP) rated Showgirls of Las Vegas (Images of America: Nevada) in Books

I absolutely love this book! I personally purchased mine at Nancy Williams costume company shop a few years back and had the privilege to have Nancy herself sign the book. ( Nancy was one of the showgirls back in the 1940's) Such great photos and the history of the Vegas showgirls!

Can Nancy Drew Find Nancy Drew?
Nancy Drew has received a letter from a law firm in London. They are trying to track down a Nancy Drew who has become an heiress in England. Obviously, she isn’t the intended recipient, but she sets out to find the woman with the same name. Meanwhile, she’s also trying to track down a mail thief who hit very close to home. Can she solve both cases?
With some of the other Nancy Drew books I’ve reread as an adult, I’ve complained about too many coincidences in the plot. That’s not the case here. Nancy may jump to a few wild but correct conclusions, but by the time we reach the end, everything has come together logically. Along the way, we get some great twists and turns that are tons of fun. The characters remain thin and there are a few dated references, but overall, this is a book that will keep the intended audience, middle graders, turning pages as quickly as they can to figure out exactly what is going on.
