Trixie Belden meets her new neighbor Honey Wheeler and they become fast friends. They notice something peculiar at the old Frayne mansion and discover a boy sleeping in the abandoned house. He is Jim Frayne and he is the grand-nephew of the deceased eccentric miserly old Mr. Frayne who used to live in the house. Jim ran away from his cruel stepfather, Jonesy. Supposedly, there is a treasure hidden in the house and Jonesy, who followed Jim to Sleepyside, wants it.

Review of 'The Secret of the Mansion' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

This was 99.5% excellent until three pages in the last chapter. Gee whiz, young teens had independence and spirit, and the author Julie Campbell researched her horse care. equestrian skills, and young adult psychology. Trixie seems as relatable and operates under moral principles as fellow teen sleuth Judy Bolton did.
