Season 1
Episode 33: Nancy Drew & the Singing Clam Digger
In Episode 33 of "It's A Clue", we delve as deep as is humanly possible into "Nancy Drew and the Clue In the Crumbling Wall". From a series of Roger Rabbit-esque shenanigans, a spate of incredibly tame juevenile delinquent activity, and a full-on artisanal castle, this book has a little somethin' for everybody. We also got an incredibly rare boating accident, twin towers, and for the first time ever, a sad little girl-child who needs Nancy's help. In other news, Kelly's having nightmares about the library, Karen feels like Carolyn Keene is a foot-shamer, and a Zillow listing sparks both inspiration and questions about HOAs. Rated 9.75 / 12 stolen blouses.

Episode 32: Author Interview with Lily Sparks
Join us as we interrogate - I mean "interview" - Lily Sparks, author of "Teen Killers Club"! We'll chat about the inspiration for some of our favorite parts of the book and her personal writing process, while intermittently badgering her to reveal the entire contents of the upcoming sequel, "Teen Killers In Love"! Most importantly, Lily weighs in on the controversial owl theory and Karen spills the tea on her romantic run-in with Robert Pattinson.

Episode 31: Teen Killers Club + Reading List #8
We may not have gone out on Halloween but we partied in our own way: We recorded this VERY SPECIAL Super Sleuth episode about the one and only TEEN KILLERS CLUB by Lily Sparks! Honestly, we could not have loved this book more if we tried. Tune in for our enthusiastic ruminations on the super-unique characters, settings, and intrigue that made us fall in love with this chilling and thrilling read. Who would you choose: Eric, Javier, Nobody, or nobody....? Karen's a Class C due to her crimes against the library, Kelly insults the cannibal community, and we both are far too invested in our crafting projects. Rated 11.5 out of 12 dog face masks.

Episode 30: Nancy Drew & the Nickerson of Time
WOW were there a lot of spiders in this book. Join us this week as we share our appreciation of "Nancy Drew and the Secret in the Old Attic," a book we did not expect to enjoy nearly as much as we did. In addition to setting poor boundaries with her clients, Nancy will wow you with her piano skills, her next level social engineering capabilities, and her fearlessness before the villianiest villain to date, BUSHY TROTT. We'll regale you with our lingering trauma around high school theater foibles, and we even manage to launch a new Ned Nickerson pun into the Nancy-verse! Bonus: Find out why Kelly is afraid of her mailbox and why Karen is really doing CrossFit. Rated 10.5 out of 12 black widow spiders (which sounds like a bad thing, but is really a pretty good rating).

Episode 29: Nancy Drew & the Misplaced Baby Czar
Welcome to episode 29, in which we spend more time talking about Anastasia Romanov than "Nancy Drew and the Clue in the Jewel Box". Trophy winners from this book include: Escaped Romanovs hiding out in River Heights, Helen Corning's return to our lives (thank goodness), and Nancy's meteoric rise to to the top of the local modeling industry. Unfortunately, there are no corn mazes but there is an autumnal hay ride, so we'll take it. Most importantly, we've agreed to write Nancy Drew: The Musical in our spare time. Listen to the end for a sneak peak of what are sure to be the greatest hits from the soundtrack. We'll be auditioning for tap dancing twins shortly. Rated 9 out of 12 Faberge Eggs.

Episode 28: Nancy Drew & A Nude Woodpecker
If you guessed "Nancy Drew & the Quest of the Missing Map" had something to do with a buried treasure, welp, you were correct. Brace yourself for an (extremely brief) island adventure, a bad guy named (wait for it) SNORKY, and a full on sea captain infestation near land-locked River Heights. If you're interested in solving a missing treasure case, we will present you with some available real-life opportunities, so dust off your codebreaking skills. As the kids say, "X marks the spot." In other news, Kelly momentarily forgets how to podcast and Karen premiers the world's first Hannah Gruen pun. Most importantly, we're gonna start writing anachronistic fanfic about Mrs. Nancy's Mom. Rated 5 out of 12 poisoned pea soups.

Episode 27: The Hawthorne Legacy + Reading List #7
The Hawthorne Legacy by Jennifer Lynn Barnes is finally here and we DEVOURED it! The sequel to the Inheritance Games, this book doubles down on the puzzles, teen drama, and thrillery goodness we have all come to cherish. Karen does an impromptu William Blake poetry recitation and Kelly blows it out of the water with her theories for the conclusion of the trilogy. Our sisterhood becomes divided over allegiances to competing Hawthorne brothers, but we forge a truce in our devotion to Libby, the greatest character of all time. (Except for Helen. #teamhelenalways) Just remember: SPOILERS. Listen to the end for the upcoming reading list and an exciting update on our next Super Sleuth episode! Rating: 10.5 out of 12 private jets

Episode 26: Nancy Drew Saves Buzz Lightyear
You thought Nancy was going to chill at a Moss Covered Mansion this week? PSYCH! She's going straight to NASA! We've got exploding oranges. We've got look-a-likes. We've got an illegal, poorly-fenced big cat preserve and a subterranean death lair. Bess has a run-in with an alligator because FLORIDA! If you loved Austin Powers, you're going to love Nancy's adventure to prevent a spaceship from being exploded. Also, we've officially turned on Ned. In other news, a railroad tycoon is actively trying to haunt Kelly out of her home. Karen wiped out while running so please be gentle with her feelings (and foot). Rating: 7 out of 12 exploding oranges
