Bookroo's summary
Nancy Drew embarks on an ocean voyage to New York, only to be warned in sign language: 'Beware of Nancy Drew and NE.' Who is NE? Could it be her cabin mate, Nelda Detweiler? As mystery and danger shadow Nancy and her friends across the sea, she must unravel the truth before reaching their destination. Will Nancy's cleverness be enough to solve the puzzle and outwit her adversaries?
From the publisher
From the moment Nancy Drew boards an ocean liner leaving for New York, she becomes involved in a new and dangerous mystery. A man on the pier gestures to someone on board in sign language. BEWARE OF NANCY DREW AND NE, he signals. Who is NE? Can it be Nelda Detweiler, a young woman who shares a cabin with Nancy, Bess, and George? Mystery and intrigue follow the girls across the ocean; but with her usual ingenuity Nancy solves the mystery and defeats her enemies before the ship reaches New York.
