This is a very unusual story for the Nancy Drew series as it is supernatural in nature. It begins with her in a lecture and then she is suddenly transported through time back to the 1930's during the great depression. She is still her and all her friends and family are still themselves as if it was an alternate reality rather than a time-jump.
She makes several comical mistakes as she's not from the 1930's and the language is different making it a really cool historical mystery. She's obviously much more bold then a woman was respectfully supposed to act in that time period but she came from money and would have been allowed a certain more freedom because of it..
It was a very refreshing take on the Nancy Drew series and I wouldn't mind reading more like this.
