No one solves crimes or captivates young readers the way teen detective Nancy Drew does—and no mystery series for young readers sells so well. While Nancy is displaying a prized antique clock at an antiques expo, a jeweled brooch is stolen. When she gets home, she finds it hidden in the clock, and she decides to use it to trap the culprit. . . .
