THE HIDDEN STAIRCASE (Original Text - revised in 1959)

To me, this book is more exciting than the volume that introduced Nancy Drew, girl detective. The mysterious stone mansion with its many secret staircases and passageways, the frightened elderly twin sisters, and the strange thefts make for exciting reading. Carson Drew’s kidnapping at the hands of miserly, Nathan Gombet, and Gombet’s cruel servant, “the slovenly unnamed negress,” bring new meanings to the words “thrilling adventure.” Nancy looks appropriately inquisitive and beautiful in a 1930s style on this dustjacket cover art. The revised story, with a completely different plot, is also very good, but it doesn’t effectively compare to the original story.—William Land.

Gostei mais do primeiro caso da Nancy Drew , apesar desse ser mais complexo que o "The Secret of the old clock" , achei que "The Hidden Staircase" parecia uma historia que não saia do lugar .
