“"It seems strange to hunt for a clue among these, Nancy, but that's exactly what I've been asked to do" Carson Drew was gazing at a pack of letters tied with blue ribbon, which he had taken from his pocket.”
Charles Leslie McFarlane (October 25, 1902 – September 6, 1977) was a Canadian journalist, novelist, screenwriter, and filmmaker, who is most famous for ghostwriting many of the early books in the very successful Hardy Boys series, using the pseudonym Franklin W. Dixon, and the Nancy Drew series under Carolyn Keene.
