Geocache Description:

As a child I spend many a summer day laying under the big tree in the backyard reading my Nancy Drew Books.  
This is the first of a series highlighting these wonderful childhood books. 

The cache is in a busy area so take caution.  Tweezers is a plus on this hunt. 


he Secret of the Old Clock is the first volume in the Nancy Drew Mystery Story series written under the pseudonym of Carolyn Keene.  It was first published on April 28, 1930 and revised in 1959.  Even after more than 80 years, this novel is ranked 53rd on the all time best selling hardcover children's books, selling more than 2.7 million copies 

Nancy Drew  is an eighteen-year-old high school graduate. Her father, Carson Drew,  is a well-known criminal defense lawyer.  The Drew’s reside in River Heights and employ a housekeeper, Hannah Gruen.   In early editions, she is depicted as a mere servant; later in the series she becomes more of a family member.  In the Secret of the Old Clock, Nancy Drew has to help Mr. Crowly's friends find his missing will before the evil Topham family steals his full inheritance!
