Nancy Drew: Dangerous Plays

4,500.00

Dad, Bess, and I are all set for London when Ned’s Shakespeare professor asks us to do a simple favor: to take a look at his townhouse while we’re there, since he can’t seem to locate the housekeeper and fears something’s wrong. Sounds easy enough, so I take the key.

Eager to cross the favor off our list, we stop by 53 Banbury Square shortly after we land. And let’s just say things in the townhouse aren’t quite tip-top. And the key? Well, it unlocks a Pandora’s box of serious trouble.

Nancy Drew: Troubled Waters

4,500.00

Nancy, Bess, and George all sign on as volunteers for Helping Homes, a nonprofit that builds homes for people in need. But trouble starts when work on the new apartments is sabotaged including ruined plumbing equipment and holes smashed in newly installed drywall. Nancy wonders why anyone would hinder such a worthy project, and she immediately offers to try to find and stop the culprit.

Nancy Drew: Close Encounters

4,500.00

Nancy, Bess and George have driven from River Heights to northern Vermont to visit a friend of George and her mom’s who owns a quaint, touristy small restaurant/café in a town near a major ski resort. They are amazed that though it is past the height of foliage season, and barely ski season, there is a traffic jam of cars waiting to catch a ferry; they decide to drop out of line and drive to a local diner. When they question the waitress about what is going on, she is surprised they haven’t heard but there have been repeated and credible UFO sightings over the border in ski country in Vermont.

George jokes about little green men in snowsuits. Bess suggests the men are red but wearing green snowsuits. Nancy simply cracks up, but grows serious when the waitress reveals that even Federal government investigators have been called in–“Vermont is turning into a North Country Roswell, New Mexico!” It’s been great for business, here and throughout northern Vermont, particularly for the town at the foot of the ski resort, but we’re all getting a little tired of the crowds, the waitress confides.

From Storeroom To Boardroom

4,500.00

In 1992, the young Babs Omotowa accepted an offer to work in the materials department of a multinational oil company. And this was the start of an exciting journey up the corporate ladder – one that would see him go on to head corporations and global functions in Nigeria, the UK and the Netherlands and become a leader of note in global oil and gas.

Driven by the important values – hard work, honesty and integrity – inculcated in him by his teacher-farmer parents, Omotowa, in From Storeroom to Boardroom, chronicles his struggles and successes as a corporate guru tackling the challenges big businesses face in the developing world; ethical dilemmas in leadership; corruption in governance; and the future of climate change discourse.

Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde

4,500.00

This masterful portrait of man’s duality, written before Freud’s naming of the ego and the id, sprang from the darkest recesses of the author’s unconscious – during a nightmare from which his wife awakened him, alerted by his screams.

More than a century later, this tale of mild-mannered Dr. Jekyll and the drug that unleashes his evil inner persona has lost none of its ability to shock. Its realistic narrative chillingly relates Jekyll’s desperation as Mr. Hyde gains control of his soul – and gives voice to our own fears of the violence lurking within us.

Eerie and harrowing, this enduring classic remains the irresistibly terrifying stuff of our worst nightmares.
