The case didn't make her a detective—it confirmed who she is. Veronica Rave is almost eighteen and certain of two things—something is wrong at the Hadley house. And anyone who could do something about it won't. So it's up to her. Set against the shimmering, uneasy optimism of 1955 Pasadena, CA, 44 Ravenswood Road follows a young Eurasian woman who soon discovers that the truth is rarely where she expects it, and finding it could cost more than she bargained for. At its heart, this is a story about what it means to trust your own judgment when everyone around you—politely, firmly, and with concern for your wellbeing—advises you not to. But Veronica will solve the case.
