A new romantic thriller for teens from the author of MISHAPS.

Alex Thaler can't wait to start her dream work experience placement at Virk, where staff from all over the world mingle in an astonishing virtual office. But when an employee is found murdered, the dream becomes a nightmare - because Alex is the prime suspect. Fortunately, Alex's friends are willing to brave shark tanks, disgusting pathology specimens and even a nude beach in order to clear her name . . .

Can a hippy chick, a goth girl in a lab coat and two guys with a taste for blowing things up really help solve the mystery - before Alex becomes the next victim?

About the Author

Nansi Kunze grew up in Britain and Australia, and can still switch accents at the drop of a hat. Her chequered career has included stints as a secondary school language teacher, educational software consultant, translator, apricot grader and voice-over artist. Nansi began writing for adults in 2000, but her penchant for manga, Paul Frank and all things Nintendo soon made it obvious that she was better suited to writing for teenagers. She lives on a small farm overlooking the Victorian Alps with her GP husband and baby son.
