چالهٔ مارها (کتاب ۱۸ کارآگاه دختر نانسی درو (همهٔ جدید))

This New York Times bestselling girl detective has one hot summer ahead! River Heights is in an uproar when the local zoo reports that one of its exotic venomous snakes has been snake-napped! It's only a matter of hours, though, before an anonymous tip leads the police to the missing critter— in the home of Nancy's friend, Charles Adams. Nancy isn't sure what to think of all this— until Charles appeals to her to help him prove his innocence. She can't resist taking the case. If he really is innocent, perhaps she can help clear his name. If he's guilty, she'll be able to satisfy herself to that fact as well. There's been a snake-napping at the River Heights Zoo, and all clues about the thief seem to point in my good friend Charlie's direction. But why would Charlie want to steal a snake? I'm not convinced he's the perpetrator, but with all the circumstantial evidence that keeps popping up, the cops are on the other side of the fence. Speaking of snakes, George's younger brother, Scott, has been slithering around a lot lately, all sneaky-like. He's not acting like himself, but his lips are sealed about what's wrong. Do these mysteries have anything to do with each other? Stick around. I'm about to find out! Nancy's good friend, Charlie, appears to be guilty of snake-napping from the River Heights Zoo. Meanwhile, George's brother, Scott, is being very sneaky and not acting like himself. Can these things be related? Nancy is about to find out Nancy wonders if her friend Charlie could be the culprit in a "snake-napping" from a zoo when circumstantial evidence mounts against him; and George's younger brother, Scott, begins acting strangely and refuses to explain what is wrong
