    • A Riverdale Mulatság fesztiválsorozat alatt Archie, Betty, Jughead és Veronica rájönnek, hogy a város sötét titkai minden eddigi képzeletet felülmúlva nyúlnak vissza a múltba... Riverdale-ben hatalmas az izgalom egy új hír bejelentését követően: egy régi hagyományt felélesztve megrendezik a Riverdale Mulatságot. Ennek gyökerei az első telepesek érkezéséig és az első juharfák megcsapolásáig nyúlnak vissza, de semmilyen írásos emlék nem maradt fenn róla. A fesztivál megnyitóján a 75 éves időkapszulából egy régi csontváz kerül elő, és ez a juharszirupos hordóba rejtett holttest nem az egyetlen rejtély, ami a Mulatságot beárnyékolja. Ugyanis a Royal Maple szépségverseny előkészületei már javában zajlanak, és a résztvevőket furcsa balesetek érik. Nyilvánvaló, hogy valaki egyszer és mindenkorra véget akar vetni ennek a Mulatságnak, de mégis ki lehet az? És ami ennél is fontosabb: miért? Ez az kisregény olyan részleteket tartalmaz, amelyek a televíziós sorozatból kimaradtak!

      Based on the TV series Nancy Drew, the most-watched new show on the CW! In this prequel novel, the beloved teen sleuth investigates a sinister, once-dormant curse that may be threatening her town once more. This is Nancy Drew for today, perfect for fans of Riverdale, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, and Stranger Things! A curse is just a mystery dressed up in a sharp, stern warning. And everyone knows that I love a mystery. Nancy Drew isn’t one for ghost stories. So when the annual Horseshoe Bay Naming Day celebration is threatened by eerie warnings of an old curse, Nancy is sure someone—someone human—is behind them. And no way is she letting this person stand in the way of her best friend, Daisy, finally getting her day in the spotlight as the lead in the much-anticipated Naming Day reenactment. But as Nancy begins investigating, the so-called marks of the curse become bolder…and more sinister. A vandalized locker and ominous notes are one thing, but soon enough lives—including Nancy’s own—are at stake. Though the dreams and eerie visions plaguing Nancy are certainly just products of her own mind…right? All old towns have their traditions and histories, but as Nancy will soon discover, they don’t always tell the whole story.

      In occasione della Fête de Riverdale, Archie, Betty, Jughead e Veronica scoprono che le radici oscure di "la città che ha del brio" sono più profonde di quanto immaginassero. A Riverdale, l'atmosfera è frizzante. Una tradizione antica viene improvvisamente ripristinata: la Fête de Riverdale, che avrebbe una lunga storia risalente alla prima raccolta di sciroppo d'acero da parte dei coloni. Tuttavia, non esiste alcuna traccia di questa festa. Questo mistero attira l'attenzione di Archie, Betty, Veronica e Jughead, e la scoperta di uno scheletro in una capsula temporale di 75 anni, la prima sera delle festività, conferma i loro sospetti. La presenza di un cadavere in un barile di sciroppo d'acero non è l'unico dramma della Fête. Il concorso d'Érable Royal, aperto a tutti gli adolescenti di Riverdale, è in pieno svolgimento, e "incidenti" colpiscono i partecipanti, tra cui gli amici del gruppo. Qualcuno sta cercando di abolire la Fête una volta per tutte, ma chi? E, soprattutto, perché? Archie e i suoi amici riusciranno a fermare questo sabotaggio prima che sia troppo tardi?
