A thrilling adventure awaits amidst the vibrant streets of Tokyo in this fast-paced and engaging mystery with a spunky protagonist (VOYA). Violet filtering her investigation through her passion for manga, art, and Japan makes her seem like a real, relatable teenager.--A.V. Club Renn keeps the tension high and the pace moving in a modern, unique whodunit.--The Los Angeles Times
Sixteen-year-old Violet is thrilled when her father's new painting commission means a summer trip to Japan. But what starts as an exotic vacation quickly turns sour when a priceless sketch by van Gogh is stolen from her father's client and held ransom for a painting by the artist. The problem is that nobody knows where the painting is hidden, and until they find it, all their lives are in danger. Joined by her friend Reika, Violet searches for the missing van Gogh in a quest that takes her from the Seattle Art Museum to the mafia-infested streets of Tokyo to a secluded inn in Kyoto. As the mystery deepens, Violet's not sure whom she can trust. But she knows one thing: she has to find the painting and the criminals--before it's too late.
