The Mystery of the Whispering Witch
Trixie, Honey and Brian go to the aid of a classmate, Fay Franklin, after her mother has an accident. Trixie and Honey reluctantly volunteer to stay with Fay in Lisgard house, knowing the house is believed to be haunted. Trixie hears a strange voice warning her to beware and the night becomes one of terror as they seem to be reliving the death of Sarah Sligo, a witch burned to death in the house over two hundred years ago. The girls flee in the middle of the night, but the Bob-Whites are sceptical about what actually happened at the house that night, and the female Bob-Whites set about to uncover the truth and help their misguided friend, Fay.

Trixie Belden is a vivacious, 14-year-old tomboy who likes nothing better than adventure and solving mysteries. While one might expect her to lead a quiet life living with her parents and three brothers on Crabapple Farm, just outside Sleepyside-on-the-Hudson, New York, nothing could be further from reality! Trixie (short for Beatrix) and her best friend, Honey Wheeler, hope one day to have their own detective agency. As they tackle mysteries that have baffled authorities, the two girl detectives - along with other members of their club called the 'Bob-Whites of the Glen' - are certainly getting plenty of training!
