About this listen
Sixteen-year-old Nancy Drew thoroughly enjoys helping her Dad, lawyer Carson Drew, with his cases. Her talent for following clues comes in handy when looking for a will hidden by the wealthy Josiah Crowley.
Josiah told several relatives and friends—all in need of financial assistance—that they would be mentioned in his will. But after his death, the will bequeaths everything to his cousins, the Topham family. Nancy Drew knows the social-climbing Tophams and wonders why kindly Mr. Crowley would overlook his more needy relatives in favor of them. Surely, there must be another will! But where did the eccentric old man hide it?
Her determination leads to danger and adventure for the brave young sleuth. Will Nancy be able to solve her very first mystery?
This is the original 1930 edition of Nancy's first adventure. The story has been updated many times over the years but this Nancy, a very independent young lady of her time, demonstrates why she became such an icon for young girls.
