Goldie Vance is one of those great, fun graphic novels that bridge the gap between kids and adults. Mystery, adventure, comedy, it's all here. I can't wait for the next book in the series! Recommended By Doug C., Powells.com

Synopsis
Move over Nancy, Harriet, & Veronica. There's a new sleuth on the block
Sixteen-year-old Marigold "Goldie" Vance lives at a Florida resort with her dad, who manages the place. Her mom, who divorced her dad years ago, works as a live mermaid at a club downtown. Goldie has an insatiable curiosity, which explains her dream to one day become the hotel's in-house detective. When Charles, the current detective, encounters a case he can't crack, he agrees to mentor Goldie in exchange for her help solving the mystery. Eisner Award-winning writer Hope Larson (A Wrinkle in Time: The Graphic Novel) and artist Brittney Williams (Patsy Walker, A.K.A Hellcat ) present the newest gal sleuth on the block with Goldie Vance, an exciting, whodunnit adventure.
