Vintage Nancy Drew THE CLUE OF THE BLACK KEYS

Description

Nancy is approached by a young college professor who tells her about a treasure that he and some other professors were searching for in Mexico. They had found a stone tablet which they believed would help them locate the treasure, but before they could translate it, the tablet vanished along with one of the professors. Did he steal the tablet or was he kidnapped? Nancy is asked to help find the missing professor and the tablet, and to guard a valuable, black half key which, with another 2 1/2 similar keys, would unlock the treasure.

This is probably one of the 10 best Nancy Drew books. The mystery, though a little implausible, is quite interesting. The book has a lot of action and suspense and was well-written. This is a very good book and every Nancy Drew fan should have this one in their collection.
