Macky Pamintuan was born and raised in the Philippines. He moved to San Francisco at age twenty-one and received his fine arts degree from the Academy of Art College.“I can smell the ocean!” eight-year-old Nancy Drew exclaimed as she rolled down the car window.
“I can hear seagulls!” George Fayne added excitedly.
“I can see the ice-cream stand!” George’s cousin Bess Marvin piped up. “Can we stop, Mr. Drew?Pleeeeeease?”
“Pleeeeeease?”Nancy and George chimed in.
Laughing, Carson Drew made a right turn onto Neptune Street. “I promise we can go later. I don’t want to spoil your appetites for dinner.”
“Okay, Daddy,” Nancy said. “Are we eating at their house? Or at a restaurant?”
“Their house is a hotel, so I’m not sure,” the Drews’ housekeeper, Hannah Gruen, said. She was in the passenger seat next to Carson, with a road map spread out across her lap. “There it is, on the right,” she added, pointing. “Oh my gosh, it’s beautiful!”
Nancy craned her neck for a better look. Ahead of them was a big Victorian mansion. It was pale blue with purple shutters, and it had a gold weather vane on top in the shape of a mermaid. The sign in front read:MERMAlc2
