Nancy's disappearance leaves the story in the hands of alternating narrators--Nancy's good friends George and Bess (although it's not always easy to tell their voices apart). When Nancy is late for a lunch date, her friends chalk it up to her usual forgetfulness. When she misses a date with boyfriend Ned, concern mounts. As several days pass, George, Ned, and Bess try to follow the slim offering of clues that might lead to her discovery. There are some catty comments that heighten the humor and a few inside jokes that provoke chuckles: wherever the trio goes, the first thing they are asked is, "Where's Nancy?" George wonders indignantly if they are nothing but sidekicks..."Booklist.
