The Phantom!

The windmill is knocked down, fences are cut, valuable livestock is let loose. And each disaster is heralded by the phantom horse! Who is trying to drive the inhabitants away from the ranch, and why? Nancy intends to unearth the secret in spite of the scribbled warning 'Keep away from Shadow Ranch."
Mystery 2: The Mystery of the 99 steps
Nancy's destination is France and a dramatic mystery. Her clues are impossibly thin-only a recurring nightmare of a fall down a stair-case and a letter: "Tell no one about the 99 steps. Monsieur Neuf."
The international financier, Monsieur Leblanc, has lost a fortune, but it hasn't been stolen. As Nancy gets closer to the crime, a series of terrifying accidents occur. Or are they accidents?
How is Leblanc tied up with the Arab who claims to turn metals into gold? And why does Monsieur Neuf scribble his initials on the 99th step? For Nancy, the mystery turns into a real nightmare...

Nancy must catch the end of the monkey's tail to solve this mystery!

El Gato (The Cat) and his notorious gang will go to any lengths to stop them from making the discovery first...kidnapping, sabotage and even attempted murder!
The Jungles and ancient ruins of Cuzco and Machu Picchu become the stage for a desparate game of hide-and-seek.
And Nancy's race for the treasure becomes a race for her life!
