Thanks, that was my mistake I think. I need to look at the text of the note again.

She said "Raybolt did it." I tried several different variations of that-- but I'd suggest trying it again.

We know 3 of the 5, but have not yet seen the other two.

I'll also mention that one book has shown up in Daniels initial video, and Bree's video today " The Clue in the Diary #7 "

Haha, don't be-- it came out harshly, so I changed it. I've just said it in this post 10 different times, but at this point, there are so many pages that I can't expect you to have seen it, like people who asked before.

Silly silly question pertaining to the books in question.

I feel like I am grasping at straws...but if we collect enough straws we may be able to make a broom.

Do the books that Tachy gave Daniel all have a begnning story line the a similar place? A city, home, etc?

Yeah, really doesn't look like a heart shape to me either.
I guess they are thinking about that heart-shape drawn in the window of Jonas' car.

could where it all started refer to the Nancy Drew series, in which case the cover of the first book is an illustrated drawing of nancy drew moving with a clock in her hand with the hands on 11 and 3.
i wiki-ed it:
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secret ... _Old_Clock] and it says how nancy is trying to recover Crowley's mantle clock so maybe something about that?

Then that's an even bigger stretch, as Jackson Davis confirmed he was just playing around and forgot to get rid of it-- and, really, what does it have to do with anything?

Tristan...interesting.

On the cover...is she carrying a candle? After all, we all got really intrigued when Daniel tried to light the white candles under Crowley's picture. LOL

Ruberic, the Nancy Drew books frequently start in a city called River Heights, but I don't remember if these specific books all begin there.

Yeah, a lot of people have thought so, and tried different variations of 2:55 along with the 3 and 11 thing.

People considered the I Drew to be possibly roman numberal one, Drew-- and then realized the 1930s cover had a clock pointing to 3 and 11 (2:55), and was about the will of man with the last name Crowley.

I've got a screencap of all 5 book spines from when he was opening the package...I don't have any good programs to clean it up, but if someone wants me to post it, let me know.

#7 (The Clue in the Diary) starts at a peaceful picnic spot between River Heights and Sandy Creek, conveniently within view of the Raybolts' home, which promptly catches on fire.

#19 (The Quest of the Missing Map) and #52 (The Secret of the Forgotten City) start at Nancy's home in River Heights...
