Book Summary –

In Very Deadly Yours, a chilling mystery unfolds when a sinister individual uses newspaper personal ads to lure unsuspecting women into danger. Nancy Drew takes the investigation into her own hands—using herself as bait—to unmask the murderer before he claims another victim. The story is tense and suspenseful, with a darker tone than traditional Nancy Drew tales, and includes an undercurrent of psychological menace that sets it apart in the series.

Originally published in February 1988 as part of The Nancy Drew Files—a spin-off series aimed at older readers—this installment maintains the classic teen-detective charm while introducing heightened thrills and maturity.

About the Author –

"Carolyn Keene" is not a real individual, but a house pseudonym used by the Stratemeyer Syndicate—a publishing collective responsible for popular children's mystery series like Nancy Drew and The Dana Girls. This pen name allowed multiple ghostwriters to contribute stories while maintaining continuity and anonymity.

The earliest Nancy Drew novels were written by Mildred Wirt Benson, a trailblazing journalist and writer who crafted the adventurous spirit of the iconic teenage sleuth. She authored 23 of the first 30 books under the Carolyn Keene pseudonym . After her, Harriet Stratemeyer Adams—daughter of the series founder—played a central role, providing plot outlines, supervising revisions, and occasionally contributing directly under the same pseudonym. Over the decades, many other writers—including Susan Wittig Albert, Walter Karig, and others—also contributed to Nancy Drew’s legacy through this collective identity
