My name's Andrew. Thanks for joining me. Tonight, I'll be reading Nancy Drew and the Secret of the Old Clock by Carolyn Keen. Chapter 5 to 7.

In the previous chapters, while out in her roadster running an errand for her father, Nancy was caught in a wild storm that meant she needed to quickly find cover at a nearby farm.

Upon getting to know them, and sympathizing with meagre means, she was even more determined
