Dec. 14 (UPI) -- A Wisconsin library didn't need Nancy Drew's detective skills to solve the mystery of a teen sleuth story returned 20 years past its due date.
The Sun Prairie Public Library said in a Facebook post that the book, Carolyn Keene's Nancy Drew: The Cast of the Vanishing Veil, was returned recently along with a sticky note explaining the tome's long absence.
The note reads: "Sorry to return 20 years late (!!) -- found in my parents' basement. I have fond memories of going to SUN growing up. Thanks for all that you do!"
The post said librarians were happy to have the book returned to the collection.
