About

The Secret of the Old Clock (Illustrated)

“The original 1930s classic—restored, reimagined, and newly illustrated.”

Step back into the world of River Heights in this definitive Quill Echo Contemporary Edition. When a wealthy socialite passes away, leaving a trail of broken promises and a missing fortune, it is up to the resourceful Nancy Drew to find the truth. Hidden within the gears of a mysterious old clock lies the secret that will change everything.

This volume marks the debut of the Quill Echo Nancy Drew Series, a curated release of Volumes 1–4 of the original 1930s mysteries.

  • Original Quill Echo Art: Featuring a stunning frontispiece and custom internal plates designed to honor the classic style of the early 20th century.

  • Premium Boutique Design: Elegant formatting including custom drop caps and a curated layout that brings a high-end feel to a nostalgic treasure.
