Summary

First published in 1944, this mystery finds Nancy searching for some unpublished musical manuscripts which she believes are hidden in the dark, cluttered attic of a rundown mansion.

First line

"It seems strange to hunt for a clue among these, Nancy, but that's exactly what I've been asked to do" Carson Drew was gazing at a pack of letters tied with blue ribbon, which he had taken from his pocket.

From the rear cover

Nancy Drew races against time to unravel the clues in a dead man's letters. If she succeeds, Philip March and his little granddaughter can be saved from financial ruin. Following the obscure clues, Nancy undertakes a search for some unpublished musical manuscripts which she believes are hidden in the dark, cluttered attic of the rundown March mansion. But someone else wants them enough to put many frightening obstacles in Nancy's way.
