![]() ![]() Little does our "girl detective" know how soon Laura will need to take her up on that offer. And Nancy tells her if she ever needs help to get in touch. Laura is dreading it-for no reason she can name. Over the next few days, the three become fast friends and Nancy learns that Laura is a recent orphan waiting for her new guardian to arrive. Laura Pendleton had heard the cries for help and, despite not being able to swim herself, risked life and limb to save Nancy and Helen. ![]() She's sure they're not going to make it when a rescuer appears in a row boat. Helen is not a strong swimmer and it takes all of Nancy's strength to keep her friend above water while trying to swim for shore. ![]() A sudden storm comes up while the two young women are boating far from the camp and despite Nancy's best efforts to outrun the wind and rain, their boat runs up against floating debris and they are tossed into the water. Nancy and her friend Helen Corning are spending time at a camp at Moon Lake-boating, hiking, swimming, playing volleyball. The Bungalow Mystery (1930) by Carolyn Keene
