The Secret of the Forgotten City

This story involves archeology and the history of some Native Americans. A woman has some tablets which supposedly tell where a Native American man buried a treasure of golden plates. The tables get stolen and we find out about the bad guy, Fleetfoot Joe.

Nancy makes a fake stone to trip Fleetfoot Joe up, and then joins Ned and the others on the archeological dig. Fleetfoot is all around, as is usual with Nancy villains, but this time he's caught several chapters before the end, the rest of the story dealing with the search for the golden plates and Nancy almost getting killed in an underground stream.

One good thing is that the people running the dig have arranged for any artifacts found to be turned over to a local museum.

Another good Nancy Drew story.
