Nancy Drew tangles with a kidnapper while the safety of her best friend, Bess, hangs in the balance in this tantalizing mystery. Film star Brady Armstrong is in River Heights for the premiere of his newest movie at the grand old Century Cinema. When Nancy’s friend Bess decides to go backstage to see her heartthrob, she interrupts a kidnapping in progress—prompting her to be snatched instead. The kidnapper doesn’t want ransom money. He demands the planned demolition of the Century Cinema be halted…or Bess will be destroyed with it. Unable to prevent the wreckers from tearing down the building, Nancy races against time to discover where Bess is hidden—and unmask the mysterious figure who is dead set on stealing the show.
