The Secret of the Old Clock (Nancy Drew 1) by Carolyn Keene (full audiobook)

Meet the girl who started it all. In this first-ever Nancy Drew mystery, sixteen-year-old Nancy sets out to help the struggling relatives of a deceased wealthy man. Rumors of a second will hidden in an old clock lead Nancy on a high-speed chase involving hidden clues, a sinister group of social climbers, and the kind of sharp-witted detective work that made her a global icon. While "Nancy Drew" is a household name, the original 1930 text has only just entered the public domain this year. This version is leaner, punchier, and carries a unique "Great Depression-era" grit that later revisions polished away. This is gold, you get to present the "authentic" origin story of literature's most famous female sleuth to a new generation. 0:00 INTRODUCTION 0:10 CHAPTER 1: The Lost Will 11:36 CHAPTER 2: A Chance Meeting 27:12 CHAPTER 3: Racing the Storm 37:23 CHAPTER 4: An Interesting Story 48:34 CHAPTER 5: A Conference 56:53 CHAPTER 6: An Unpleasant Encounter 1:05:57 CHAPTER 7: Nancy Turns Sleuth 1:13:30 CHAPTER 8: A Discouraging Day 1:26:24 CHAPTER 9: Vital Information 1:36:38 CHAPTER 10: Abigail's Disclosure 1:47:10 CHAPTER 11: Visiting the Tophams 1:55:13 CHAPTER 12: Following a Clue 2:06:20 CHAPTER 13: An Adventure 2:14:29 CHAPTER 14: An Exciting Discovery 2:22:34 CHAPTER 15: A Desperate Situation 2:30:26 CHAPTER 16: Left to Starve 2:37:45 CHAPTER 17: Jeff Tucker' Story 2:47:31 CHAPTER 18: Notifying the Police 2:56:21 CHAPTER 19: A Risky Undertaking 3:02:30 CHAPTER 20: What Nancy Found 3:09:03 CHAPTER 21: Capturing the Robbers 3:17:10 CHAPTER 22: What the Notebook Revealed 3:26:35 CHAPTER 23: Looking for the Will 3:36:36 CHAPTER 24: The Coup de Grâce 3:48:38 CHAPTER 25: A Reward
