  “What a horrible woman!” Lisa gasped.

  “She believed in her own witchcraft, I think,” mused Nancy. “She slipped an elf-bolt into a letter you sent your mother, probably after sweetly offering to post it for you, and did the same thing with my letter from Lance Warrick. And after your mother called to say I might be coming over, Ethel had Bobo Evans send me tickets to the Crowned Heads concert and then plant cocaine in my purse.”

  Lisa shuddered. “It all seems like a bad dream!”

  Hugh hugged her. “The nightmare’s over now, dear—thanks to Nancy!”

  Days later, after a week of sun and fun on the Cornish Riviera, Nancy prepared to fly home. Both Lance and Alan were at Heathrow to see her off. She didn’t know that she would soon find herself involved in a frightening mystery called The Phantom of Venice.

  “You still haven’t said which one of us you care for most, Nancy luv!” Lance complained.

  A voice announced that it was time to board. Nancy kissed each of her suitors and replied lightly, “I guess that’s one riddle I haven’t solved yet!”
