[edit] Plot summary
When Nancy Drew eagerly agrees to help her lawyer father solve a mystery of the glowing eye, she has no way of knowing that it will involve the kidnapping of her close friend Ned Nickerson.
A puzzling note in Ned's handwriting sets Nancy and her friends Bess and George on a hazardous search for a bizarre criminal. From their base of operations, the Emerson College campus, the three girl detectives and Ned's college pals, Burt and Dave, follow a maze of clues to locate the kidnapper's hideout and rescue Ned, but also she is alarmed by the high-handed methods of a woman lawyer who tries to take the case away from her.
