Nancy Drew
Book Two
The Hidden Staircase
Nancy Drew is on the case of the hidden staircase. The eighteen-year-old sleuth is busy with two mysteries to solve. Her friend, Helen Corning has asked her to come Twin Elms, to help solve a mystery involving a ghost. Just before Nancy leaves home, she is visited by a lawyer named Nathan Gomber, who tells her that her father is in danger and she had better not let him out of her sight.
Nancy's dad, who is also a lawyer, is working on a case for the railroad. Men are protesting the railroad going through their property and the crooked lawyer has told them to hold out for more money. After Nancy's dad assures her that he can take care of himself, Nancy reluctantly goes to help her friend.
Missing jewelry, strange noises, shadows, a moving chandelier, and footsteps at night, all plague the women at the Twin Elms Manor. But when Nathan Gomber comes to the manor, trying to buy the property out from under Helen's great-grandmother, Nancy is very suspicious. On top of that, Nancy's dad was last seen by a taxi driver who was taking him to meet his daughter, but he never arrived.
Can the crooked lawyer have something to do with the ghost? Can he also be involved in the disappearance of Carson Drew? How does the ghost get into the manor? And how does the spook always know when the coast is clear?
The suspense will keep you reading from beginning to end, in Nancy Drew's Second mystery, The Hidden Staircase.

I have always been a fan of mysteries. When I was 12 I read as many of the Nancy Drew books as I could get my hands on. My two favorites are the Hidden Staircase and the Clue of the Broken Locket. This series of books is fun, exciting, clean, and adventurous. I re-read them even now. My daughter loves tham too. I hope that our favorite teen detective will always stand the test of time and grab the attention of countless new generations of readers.
