Books like Process of Elimination by Mildred Augustine Wirt Benson
Nancy Drew, accompanied by Bess, arrives in Los Angeles to attend an international conference of environmentalists. When the conference coordinator Carl Dubchek is found dead, Nancy realizes the case is far more sinister than a campus crime. Her investigation puts her and Bess in danger.
Across the state, Frank and Joe Hardy investigate a bizarre raid at the San Diego Zoo that appears to be linked to a stolen truckload of bamboo. Their leads trace back to Dubchek, a former CIA operative, and a network of greed and deception. The Hardy boys ultimately team up with Nancy to untangle the international intrigue.
Together the girls and boys solve a complex web of corruption and uncover the truth behind Dubchek’s disappearance and the bamboo theft in "Process of Elimination."
