Ally Carter's megabestselling Gallagher Girls series meets Veronica Mars with a paranormal twist when Jillian Cade's (fake!) private eye service unearths far more than she bargained for.
Emmy-nominated writer Jen Klein grew up in North Carolina and studied theater at Appalachian State University. She wrote the screenplay for the movie The Choking Game and is also the author of the forthcoming contemporary YA romance Shuffle, Repeat. Jen is currently a writer on the hit TV series Grey's Anatomy. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband, two sons, and several animals, all of whom are unruly and ill-behaved.
Praise for Jillian Cade: (Fake) Paranormal Investigator
“If Nancy Drew’s snarkier cousin moved to Sunnydale, you’d have
someone like Jillian Cade. A delightfully fun and fast debut.”
—Kiersten White, New York Times bestselling author of
Paranormalcy
“Jillian Cade is the real thing. Jen Klein's fearless, irreverent
heroine takes her place in the canon alongside Buffy and Veronica
Mars . . . an irresistible, smart, and heartfelt debut with a
paranormal twist that kept me guessing until the action-packed
end.”
—Danielle Paige, New York Times bestselling author
of Dorothy Must Die
"Klein builds her underworld with both logic and farce, paralleling
Jillian's own skepticism and quick wit."
—Kirkus Reviews
"A detective story with a heavy romance bent . . . Klein’s story is
quick and funny despite its darker subject matter."
—School Library Journal
"Klein’s first novel for young adults is funny and suspenseful, and
many readers will relate to protagonist Jillian Cade’s cynicism
(not surprising given her family situation and lack of popularity
with her peers). Part mystery, part romance, with real paranormal
action, this book will appeal to fans of mystery, fantasy, and
romance."
—VOYA
“To say this is a mash-up of Veronica Mars and The
X-Files doesn’t quite do Jillian justice. She’s her own
strong, scathingly witty, big-hearted phenomenon, and her story
will keep you up late, turning pages.”
—Nina Berry, author of The Notorious Pagan Jones
