Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. It's their senior year in high school and the girl's pipeline of new mysteries has run dry. In addition, they are beginning to worry about what will happen to their organization Les Mademoiselles after they graduate in June 1966. At her family's annual reunion in the summer of 1965 Nancy picked up an interest in genealogy after talking with her grandfather's older sister and her daughter. Her interest in researching her family's history will show up various times as a minor interest while the girls continue to look for their next mystery. Nancy's sister, Shirley, and her friend, Emo, are interested in getting in on the fun. They conduct a campaign throughout much of the book for joining or taking over the Les Mademoiselles organization for the investigation of Mattydale mysteries after the older girls graduate. Nancy's interest in her family's genealogy is what initially pulled her toward Ireland. She had to convince Colette and Sam to come with her since she didn't want to go alone. Her grandfather had inherited a farm back in Ireland from a 2nd cousin, from a branch of the family that hadn't immigrated. He invited her to stay at the farmhouse on his Irish farm that was located just north of the village of Upperchurch which was close to where the family had emigrated from. It took Nancy a couple months to convince Colette and Sam to go to Ireland with her. At a St. Patrick's Day celebration at Nibsy Ryan's Pub on Tipperary Hill in Syracuse she was finally able to win them over. They arrived in Upperchurch in mid-July and settled into the inherited farmhouse formerly belonging to William McGrath III. It didn't take long before the girls began to sense that there was something amiss with the circumstances surrounding William's death in March 1965. They hadn't been able to find a new mystery in Mattydale, but now, here in Ireland, a mystery had found them. As the girls endeavored to discover more details about the death of William McGrath, their quiet Irish nights were shattered by the screeches of a Banshee. For those who believe in such creatures the screeches of the Banshee foretell the death of someone. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Mattydale is a small hamlet on the north side of Syracuse, just over the city line. The agricultural nature of the area began transitioning to residential after World War I and received its name from a prominent citizen. The residential expansion continued in support of the nearby Army Air Base that was built at the beginning of World War II and the baby boom after the war. Parents thought it was a nice, safe place to raise their families but some of their children felt that the place was just too dull.In the summer of 1959 a young girl named Colette moved to Mattydale with her family. When school began in September she quickly made two new friends named Nancy and Sam. They soon discovered a common interest of investigating and solving mysteries. The appearance of a strange stalker on Halloween night led them to form an investigation agency that they named "Les Mademoiselles." They would use this organization to pursue the trail of this stalker and the other mysteries that came their way.A school report about the small local library, that the girls originally thought would detract them from solving mysteries, provided a bigger mystery. They were collecting an increasing amount of evidence that led them to believe that a ghost had taken up residence in the little library. It was also becoming apparent that Colette had much more experience with ghosts than she had told her friends, and Nancy and Sam began asking her more questions about her mysterious old neighborhood back in the city of Syracuse. The girls faced much skepticism as they tried to find support for their belief. In their struggles to communicate with the entity, that they believed inhabited the library, the girls encountered obstacles that needed to be overcome. During a late night entry into the library they discovered that a Dark Stranger had also taken an interest in their activities. This would indicate some support for their ideas; but not the kind that they were seeking. They started out to break the cycle of boredom in their dull little town. When they found themselves in the middle of a very scary situation a small part inside of them was wishing that things would be dull once more. This item is printed on demand.
