Reviews for The Secret of the Old Clock
Review - Secret of the Old Clock, The
The rude Topham family stands to inherit the estate of Josiah Crowley, but Nancy Drew suspects the old man may have made and hidden a new will. She gets a clue about an old clock and tracks it down, foiling a robbery in the process. The clock hides a note leading to the will that gives the money to Crowley's family and leaves out the Tophams.
OK, it's simplistic. But the writing is crisp and carries the story along nicely. The plot is a bit silly, but it was written for 10-year-old girls.
