The Secret of the Old Clock, by Carolyn Keene, is the first novel in the Nancy Drew series and introduces the young detective whose intelligence and determination drive the story. The plot begins when Nancy becomes involved in a complicated inheritance case concerning the estate of Josiah Crowley, a wealthy man who left several conflicting wills. Some deserving families are about to lose the money they were promised, and the truth seems to depend on a missing, original will that no one can find.As Nancy investigates, she follows a trail of clues that leads her from small-town homes to hidden compartments and secret drawers, always staying one step ahead of adults who doubt her abilities. At the same time, she must deal with the greedy and suspicious Tophams, who may be trying to secure the inheritance for themselves. The search for the old clock, where an important document might be hidden, becomes the central thread of the mystery and keeps the tension moving forward.What makes the story especially engaging is not only the puzzle itself, but also Nancys character: she is confident, resourceful, and driven by a strong sense of justice. She helps the families who are about to be wronged, not for personal gain, but because she believes the truth must be restored and fairness defended. The investigation becomes a test of her independence and her ability to act in a world that often underestimates her."Carolyn Keene" is a pseudonym used by several writers who created and developed the Nancy Drew series, beginning in 1930. The Secret of the Old Clock established the model for countless detective stories for young readers, combining mystery, adventure, and a capable female protagonist who would become one of the most enduring characters in popular literature.

In May 1962, the town council of Centralia, Pennsylvania, hired volunteer firefighters to clean up the town landfill by setting it on fire. It was a routine procedure, but they made a fatal mistake: the landfill sat atop an exposed vein of coal that connected to a vast labyrinth of abandoned mines beneath the town. The fire didnt go out. It went down."The Town That Burned From Beneath" chronicles the slow-motion apocalypse that followed. For decades, the fire raged underground, heating the ground until tomatoes cooked on the vine and carbon monoxide filled basements. The government ignored the problem until a 12-year-old boy fell into a steaming sinkhole that opened up in his backyard.Today, Centralia is a ghost town with a population of less than five. The fire is still burning and is expected to burn for another 250 years. This book is a terrifying look at an environmental disaster that cannot be stopped, exploring the incompetence of bureaucracy and the resilience of the few residents who refused to leave their burning homes.
