Available: paperback, Kindle
Axelle Anderson
is a sixteen-year-old undercover model. She's just flown in from England to New
York Fashion Week. Not just to model, but to discover the person responsible
for the theft of a valuable black diamond necklace. If it's not found, her
client's business and
reputation will be ruined. It sounds like an easy
assignment. It's not. Axelle is forced to juggle her sleuthing between her over
ambitious agent's bookings. To complicate things, the guy she used to like, and
still does, but doesn't want to admit it, is on the scene, too. She only has
one week to pull it off, but time is racing at runway speed.
Girls will love the getting
a birds-eye view of the fashion industry while reading a goo mystery. Axelle is
an engaging heroine who, despite her model looks, is more interested in solving
crime than being a fashion model.
Target audience: Grades 7-9
Mystery/ suspense: good
