    About this ebook

    Nancy Drew and the Clue Crew need to discover who’s tricking their taste buds!

    Nancy, Bess, and George are excited to be spending some of their summer at Kid Kuisine, a cooking camp where they are going to learn how to make delicious treats from Chef Giorgio. At the end of the camp, they will be cooking for their families—and someone will win Best Chef!

    But after a few days, it’s clear that one of their fellow campers is not as excited as they are. From salty brownies to super-spicy pizza, things are not as yummy as they should be: Someone is sabotaging the food. Could it be the stuck-up Jeremy, who is intent on winning Best Chef? Or the chef’s assistant, who might have hidden motives of her own? It’s up to the Clue Crew to figure out who’s ruining the recipes—and everyone’s appetite!

      Off to Cooking Camp

      I’ve never been to a cooking camp before, said eight-year-old Nancy Drew. She peered out the car window eagerly.

      Me neither. I wonder what we’ll learn to cook, her friend George Fayne added.

      I hope it’s cupcakes. They’re my favorite! George’s cousin Bess Marvin chimed in.

      Well, if it’s cupcakes, make sure to save a couple for me, Hannah Gruen called out cheerfully from the driver’s seat. The Drews’ longtime housekeeper, Hannah had helped take care of Nancy from the time she was three. This morning she was driving the girls to camp. Okay, here we are! As soon as I find a place to park, we can get you ladies settled in.

      Nancy, George, and Bess were spending a week at Kid Kuisine, a summer day camp just outside their hometown of River Heights. As Hannah pulled into the driveway, Nancy craned her neck to see outside. The main building reminded her of a gingerbread house, with candy-colored shutters and flowering window boxes. The sprawling yard was filled with apple trees, gardens, and a pond.

      A big sign near the front door read: WELCOME TO KID KUISINE! On it were hand-painted pictures of cookies, pizza, and fruits and vegetables.

      This is going to be so cool! Nancy thought excitedly.

      Hannah led Nancy, George, and Bess inside and handed their forms to an older girl sitting at the front desk. The girl had shoulder-length brown hair and chunky black glasses; her name tag said ROSEMARY.

      Rosemary squinted at their forms. Okay, so, um, welcome, Nancy, Bess, and Georgia—

      George, George corrected her.

      Sorry. George. Everyone’s in the kitchen. Rosemary lifted her arm to direct them and accidentally knocked down a container full of pens and pencils. "Oops! Why am I always doing that?"

      While Rosemary picked up the pens and pencils, Hannah gave Nancy a quick hug. I’ll see you girls later. Have fun!

      Thanks, Hannah! Nancy said, hugging her back.

      Nancy and her friends headed through an arched doorway into the kitchen. It was a large, sunny room that was way bigger than Nancy’s kitchen at home. Along the walls were several fancy-looking silver refrigerators as well as shelves filled with bottles, boxes, and jars of ingredients. In the middle of the room was an enormous island with sinks and counter space. Copper pots and pans hung from the ceilings, gleaming brightly.

      There were six kids—three boys, three girls—sitting on stools around the island. A tall, bald man was showing one of the girls how to hold a wooden spoon properly.

      drawing

      The man beamed at Nancy, George, and Bess. "Magnifico! You must be our last three campers! I am Chef Giorgio, your instructor in the art of fine cooking!"

      Chef Giorgio? That sounds like my name, George, George said with a smile.

      "I
