Bookroo's summary

Nancy's friend Rebecca lands the role of the Snow Queen and claims her wand can freeze anything. When a dog and three boys vanish, leaving icy replicas, Nancy must uncover the truth. Is Rebecca wielding real magic, or is there a clever illusion at play? As the mystery deepens, Nancy races to solve the puzzle before more disappearances occur. Can she reveal the secret behind the snow statues, or will the Snow Queen's icy grip remain unchallenged?
