Feb 26, Gregory Gerard rated it it was The Clue in the Crumbling Wall. This has to be my all-time fave Nancy Drew mystery. It has an aging castle, and hidden trails through the overgrown gardens, and boat trips up secret tributaries, and a cloister walk down to the beach, and a clandestine Poet's Nook This is one guilty pleasure I do allow myself a grown-up read now and then on winter days by the fire.

The castle reminded me of ones in Romantic-era books and I could really visualize it something that's usually hard for me. I also enjoyed the Cinderella-like mystery at the heart of it. Nancy is trying to locate a missing dancer. A delightful mystery. One of the better books in the Nancy Drew series. Very atmospheric with the old castle, overgrown gardens and various crumbling stone walls. Good way to spend a little time. I remember reading this book when I was younger and really loving it. Don't get me wrong—it was cute and all—but The Clue in the Crumbling Wall exactly something to write home about.
