River Heights (Nancy Drew)

River Heights was an American paperback spinoff series (1989-1992) from the Nancy Drew Files series of mystery stories for preteen girl readers published by Simon & Schuster.[1] The pilot story for this series was Nancy Drew Files #39 ‘’The Suspect Next Door’’. This series (also credited to Carolyn Keene) involved Nancy's neighbor, Nicki Masters, and revolved around Nicki's friends and rivals at River Heights High School.

Notable among the characters beside Nikki include her arch-rival, Brittany Tate, a popular newspaper reporter; her two friends, wealthy Kim Bishop and transplanted southerner, Samantha Daley (Samantha and Brittany later become rivals); Nikki's boyfriend, Tim Cooper, whom Brittany wants as well; Jeremy Pratt, a stuck-up rich boy who falls for Kim and softens her somewhat. Others include Ellen Ming, Madge Pouchard; Karen Jacobs and Nikki's best friend, Lacey Dupree among many others.

These books, unlike the originals, were mostly romance books. The series lasted for a short time, consisting of 16 volumes and a "Super Sizzler" special edition.[2] Nancy Drew makes cameos throughout the series.
