For as many of them as there are and as popular as they purportedly have been over decades of readers, this was a huge disappointment. Nancy Drew is full of bland, shallow characters, predictable and slow-paced action, and boring and unnecessary detail.First things first -- characters. A good writer can take a character you don't really want to like and make you like them, as with Sherlock Holmes. Yes, he's brilliant, but he's very annoying. However, you can't help but like him, faults and all.Probably read in 1964 or 1965.
This one is between three and four stars for me, but I rounded up because overall it was an enjoyable read and for me seemed better than the last couple of the Nancy Drew books that I (re)read. It is a typical Nancy Drew book, with all its expected 'well isn't that a coincidence' moments. But, Nancy seemed much less codependent in this one, and showed a bit of restraint before jumping and and trying to solve everyone's lives for them (along with the actual mysteries).p.s. despite what is claimed

I still love these books I read as a kid!
This book is okay but the thing is that I didn't really understand it well. It was too confusing and I think this book was a little too hard for me. This book is good but I don't think it's for me.
This was the first Nancy Drew book I ever read as a child. I remember the library did not have the book I wanted, so my mother told me to "Try a mystery! Nancy Drew is interesting."And that was the beginning of my entire childhood.
This installment is a bit messy - it felt like there were way too many things going on for a short book..... Ghost ships, kidnapping, ransacking, treasure hunting, child abuse, abduction, secret tunnels, record pirating, rock musicians etc. So while it was entertaining I feel like some of the side plots could have been dropped and more focus given to the main story ark.
