Episode #54: The Crooked Banister

Hi, True Drews! Well, today, we are going to discuss one of the most unhinged Nancy Drew mysteries in the original 56 books, #48 The Crooked Banister. Nancy and Carson set out to solve a case involving some of his clients, the Melodys, who were sold a piece of property that turns out to be a Native American reservation. They also figure out that a man named Rawley Banister is involved in this scam and he has the craziest house I've ever heard of. (There are robots, poison, trap doors, a fiery moat...you get the picture.) Nancy and Carson have to solve who is also behind exploiting Native American children on the reservation. This is a very WEIRD book. *TRIGGER WARNING: A group of Native American people are exploited very unfairly in this book, which I did not like!*
