In this episode of 'Send Me To Sleep: Books and stories for bedtime,' host Andrew introduces the fifth installment of the Nancy Drew mystery series, 'Nancy Drew and the Secret of the Old Clock.' After learning from Abigail Rowan that Uzziah Crowley hid a notebook containing clues to a secret will inside a family clock, Nancy devises a clever plan to infiltrate the Topham residence. Using charity dance tickets as a cover, she gains entry to the Tophams' home and discovers they've sent the old clock to their bungalow at Moon Lake. Determined to uncover the truth, Nancy travels to the lakeside camp where her friend Helen Corning is staying. Along the way, she faces a flat tire and delays her arrival, but arrives just in time for a launch ride that reveals the exact location of the Topham bungalow. As the episode ends, Nancy is poised to investigate the bungalow, driven by her determination to solve the mystery and help the Horner sisters, who are struggling financially. The story blends suspense with a soothing narrative, perfect for bedtime listening.
