Longtime fans and aspiring detectives alike will enjoy solving the case alongside Nancy Drew in this suspenseful, action-packed thriller. Review: Good Read - This is an awesum read about "Nancy Drew", a sleuth, who is the daughter of "Carson Drew". The story is the first in the Nancy Drew series. The story goes: Mr Josiah Crowley, a shrewd and clever old man, dies and Nancy's so-called enemies the Topham Family claim his last will and testament leaves his sizeable fortune to them. Before he died Mr Crowley stayed with the Topham's so no one knows the whole story of which is the final will. However, he had mentioned to some close friends and family that he would leave something to them each for being good to him. However, where is the final will??? And thus the adventure begins. To tell the whole story would be telling and stealing the excitement but I recommend this book even to adults. Good read. But needless to say the Old Clock holds the key and Nancy Drew is the herione and saves the day!! All's well that ends well though maybe not for the "nasty Tophams". :) Review: Awesome Book !! - The book is awesome ..
