In this first of the Nancy Drew Mystery Stories, Nancy, unaided, seeks to find a missing will. Her search not only tests her keen mind but also leads her into a thrilling adventure. Carolyn Keene is the pseudonym of the authors of the Nancy Drew mystery stories and The Dana Girls mystery stories, both produced by the Stratemeyer Syndicate. In addition, the Keene pen name is credited with the Nancy Drew spin-off, River Heights, and the Nancy Drew Notebooks. Nancy Drew is a fictional character appearing in several mystery book series, movies, video games, and TV shows as a teenage amateur sleuth. The books are ghostwritten by a number of authors and published under the collective pseudonym Carolyn Keene. Created by Edward Stratemeyer, the founder of the book-packaging firm Stratemeyer Syndicate, as the female counterpart to his Hardy Boys series. The Nancy Drew Mystery Stories series lasted until 2003. Sixteen-year-old attractive, golden-haired Nancy Drew wishes to help the Turners, who are struggling relatives of the recently deceased Josiah Crowley, by finding a missing will that can give them claim to Crowley's estate. She becomes interested in the case because she dislikes Crowley's snobbish nouveau-riche social-climbing heirs presumptive, the Tophams. Interviewing various Crowley relatives and friends, Nancy learns from an old lady that Crowley hinted that the clue to his will would be found in the family clock. When Helen gives Nancy charity tickets to sell, she sells them to the Tophams to gain entry to their home and quiz them about the clock. Nancy joins Helen at summer camp to investigate the Topham summer home nearby. There, she is overpowered by the burglar who stole the Crowley Clock and the rest of the Topham furniture. She is left bound and gagged in the vacant house. She is able to obtain the titular clock while the burglars drink wine and beer heavily at a wayside inn. Nancy is very strong-willed and competitive with the Tophams while charitable and altruistic to the poor heirs. Facsimile Edition [Stated] Later printing.
