Ghost in the Machinery (Nancy Drew: Girl Detective Graphic Novels, #9)

Book blurb:

Has Nancy Drew solved the world's energy crisis?  On a mission, sponsored by young, rich, and handsome Ralph Credo, Nancy teams up with eccentric scientist Roy Hinkley, to find an amazing high efficiency engine able to operate at an amazing 200 miles per gallon!  The experimental engine, mounted on a tank, was part of an experiment during the final days of World War II.  There's just one problem, the engine and the tank are haunted.  "Ghost In The Machinery" is the first in a series of three Nancy Drew adventures entitled "The High Miles Mystery."

I enjoyed the mystery in this book. Within a building scheduled for demolition is an experimental engine that was built in WWII. Eccentric scientist Roy Hinkley believes this engine is the key to solving some of our energy problems we currently face. He was given the go ahead to look inside the building and take whatever "urban legends" he may or may not find inside the walls before demolition takes place. Since no one believes him or the existence of the engine he is moving about relatively undisturbed.....until Nancy Drew and her gang stumble upon Roy and his angel investor Ralph Credo aka a safecracker who has been playing by the law.... pick up the book yourself to see how the mystery unfolds!!
