Grade A Stupid: Book 1 of the Darcy Walker Series

By A.J. Lape

A dead body brings a misfit, bad boy, and jock together. Can their cocktail of chaos catch a killer, or will they be next?

Darcy Walker's a practical joker. Adrenaline junkie. And she has an allergic reaction to schoolwork. In her mind, the best parts of high school are staring at good butts and when the final bell rings. But her world gets shook when she discovers a dead body near Valley High. It jumpstarts her inner-Sherlock, and she vows to catch the murderer.

Teaming up with an out-of-shape jock and the school bad boy to unravel the clues, Darcy soon realizes chasing the sins of a killer can come with a price. Danger spikes the deeper she digs as she uncovers a startling connection between the corpse, a fellow nerd, and a gang infiltrating the school. When a stalker begins to shadow her every move-threatening torture and death if she doesn't stand down-Darcy has a decision to make: concede defeat or go Mach-1 at the truth and pray she doesn't die.

GRADE A STUPID is the first novel in the action-packed Darcy Walker Mystery Series. If you enjoy humorous dialogue, twisty plots, and gritty heroines who are verbs in a world full of nouns, then you'll love this novel where the underdog saves the day.
