The Secret at Solaire

This page is currently under construction - please return in the future for further information. In the mean time, I have prepared a brief gallery of the covers of The Secret at Solaire.

From S&S Digest Plot List:  Bess has a part-time job selling a new line of cosmetics from the exclusive Spa Solaire.  Her friends are surprised when she wins a sales award prize of a two-week stay at the Spa.  Bess and George take off for Arizona, but Nancy follows when she gets a call from George saying that something is wrong with the Spa.  Sara, one of the tennis coaches with whom George had become friends, has vanished.  The owners are claiming that she quit, but Sara's roommate insists that Sara wouldn't do that.  Eventually Nancy and company uncover that the owners are being blackmailed by one of their guests.  The blackmailer has paid Sara to vanish, to make things look bad for the owners.  Nancy finds herself in a tight spot when she is almost drowned in the flotation tank before she can uncover the owner's shady background and reveal the blackmailer.

Originally slated to be #109.
