The Unofficial Nancy Drew Home Page

Brunette Louise Dana, 17, and her blond sister Jean, 16, reside in the pleasant town of Oak Falls with their uncle, Captain Ned Dana and his clumsy housekeeper, Cora Appel. Both the Girls are sophomores at the Starhurst private girls school in the village of Penfield, where they seem to be unable to restrain themselves from excelling at everything. Not unnaturally, this attracts attracts some ill feelings, particularly from the unpopular Lettie Briggs and her sycophantic crony, Ina Mason, who dog them throughout virtually every story.
