Nancy usually helps her father, Carson Drew, with his cases. Nancy's mystery all starts when she heard rumors that long ago there was a treasure hidden in a city that is now buried under the Nevada Desert. Nancy and her friends, Bess, George, Ned, Burt, and Dave, plan to join a dig sponsored by two colleges to hunt for the gold. Before Nancy starts, she receives an ancient tablet with petroglyphs carved on it. But with the clue from the tablet, a thief also wants the treasure and brings threat and danger to Nancy and her friends. One stressful adventure after another overwhelmed Nancy and her friends in 102-degree temperature as they follow Nancy's guesses above and below ground. They are assisted by a Indian woman and a young geology student. In the end Nancy and Ned almost lose their lives, just after Nancy has discovered the precious hidden treasure of gold under the Nevada Desert.
