The Clue in the Crossword Cipher by Carolyn Keene (2003) (L63a1) Nancy Drew #44 Grosset & Dunlap HC

Told against the fascinating background of South America, this Nancy Drew mystery adventure makes exciting reading. Lovely young Carla Ponce who lives in Peru invites Nancy and her friends Bess and George to visit her and solve her "monkey mystery," which promises to lead to a fabulous treasure. The clue is carved on an intriguing wooden plaque that is so old most of the crossword cipher is obliterated.

When a notorious gang headed by El Gato (The Cat) steals a priceless relic, Nancy's hopes of solving the mystery are almost shattered. But the daring young detective's ability to think and act quickly results in the recovery of the plaque.

Nancy's determined efforts to decode the crossword cipher takes her to the magnificent, awe inspiring Incan ruins to Cuzco and Machu Picchu. Through clever deductions, perseverance, and dangerous adventures, Nancy and her friends help to capture a ring of vicious smugglers and go on to make an astounding archaeological discovery.
