Dead Is So Last Year

By: Marlene Perez

Narrated by: Suzy Jackson

Something very strange starts happening in Nightshade the summer that the eldest Giordano sister, Rose, gets a job working at Dr. Franken's research laboratory. People are starting to see double. Doppelgngers of Nightshade residents are popping up all over town. Daisy, Rose, and Poppy think it's a coincidence, until the rumors start that their father, who disappeared several years ago, has been spotted in town.

Meanwhile, Daisy's beau, Ryan, is spending all of his time training for football, and like the other guys on the team, he's grown enormous almost overnight. Samantha Devereux's boyfriend's neck has doubled in size since school ended. Could the football players be resorting to extreme measures to win?

Between summer jobs, sugar rushes, and beach parties, the Giordano girls get to the bottom of these mysteries and more.

Critic reviews

"Fans who mourn the loss of TV's Veronica Mars are in for a treat as Perez delivers a wisecracking, boy-lusting, determined sleuth of a high school protagonist...this quick, lighter-than-air spoof of the undead, cheerleaders and popularity is pure pleasure." ( Publishers Weekly)

Witty and well written
