Mandie and Celia visit Jonathan Guyer in New York. Mysterious people and strange conversations have the girls wondering what's really going on behind the closed doors of the Guyer mansion. Ages 8-13. Mandie book 28.
I really enjoyed this book. It was a real page turner, but what mandie book isn't? Mandie is very happy to hear her mother say that she is allowed to go with her best friend, Ceila, and her mother to New York. When they arrive in New York, Jonathan Guyer and his father invite them to stay at their house. Mandie and Ceila are very excited to see Jonathan again, but when a lost dog shows up mysteries start to unravel. Who does the dog belong to? Who is the girl that keeps coming to house claiming the dog is hers. Who is the man that the butler is caught giving money to? Is all of these mysteries tied together? Read to find out! I really liked this book because of the relationship between Mandie and Jonathan. I thought it so sweet when Mandie saw that Jonathan had kept the hankercheif she had dropped in Europe. And the way Jonathan comforted her on the roof. I give Mrs. Leppard two thumbs up for this book!
An Awesome Book!

Mandie is visiting Jonathan in New York, and the 'mansion' that he lives in awes her. But there is never a dull moment. Jonathan finds a dog, and then a strange girl comes looking for it. And when they find the butler tied up, Mandie is sure something sinister is in the air.While chasing the person they believe to have tied up the butler, Mandie and Jonathan get stuck on a rooftop with no way of getting down.But when they finally do get down, they made a surprising discovery.I really liked this book. The part about Jonathan and Mandie stuck on the roof of an apartment is really page turning.Angelina sounds like someone's little sister. She sounds sooooo cute! If you've read this book and want to hear more about all the characters in New York again, read 'Mandie and the New York Secret.' Everyone is back in it, and it is a really good book.

Hi! My name is Virginia Sulpy and I'm 14 years old. And I mean it when I say this book is PHAT. This is definately one of the best books yet in the super series Mandie. The mystery Mandie gets herself into this time takes her places! She's in NYC, and she and her friend Jonathan find one of the servants tied up. They chase the two culprits, who consist of a Spanish, beret wearing man and a little girl who has been bugging Jonathan for his dog he adopted. Mandie and her friend chase the man over dangerous elevated train tracks, and into a skeezy apartment house. They get locked on the roof, and it starts to snow. And Mandie has such a bad cold, that when they finally get out, she faints! The descriptions in this book are incredible. You can feel Mandie's misery! Not only that, but the mystery is a sophisticated one that will keep you guessing. Don't let the up to "age 12" review stop you- this, and all of the other Mandie series, will be, in my opinion, even better if you're older. A truly great book for all ages! Ms. Leppard, do the world a favor and write more of these soon! We all want more! Thanks!
