Vampire-mania has gripped River Heights, with teenage girls going wild over the new "DieLite" novels and movies. But what happens when a supposedly "real" handsome young vampire arrives on the scene? Will Nancy expose him as a fraud -- or fall under his dark spell? As if that wasn't enough-- there's something dark and sinister happening while everyone's distracted by the vampire madness. Could this possibly be linked to what's happening in Bayport, home of the Hardy Boys? Spoiler warning: there are no vampires, blood or gore in this graphic novel.

About the Author:

Stefan Petrucha has written X-Files comics and for Disney comics. He is the author of such YA series as "Timetripper" (Razorbill), "Wicked Dead" with Thomas Pendleton (Harper Collins) and "The Rule of Won," which was published in September 2008 to rave reviews. Stefan has written every Nancy Drew Graphic Novel from Papercutz to date with more to come.

Sarah Kinney has written over 150 original Disney comics for Egmont Publishing. She recently finished scripting the animated feature "Blaze of Glory" for Santoon Productions.

Sho Murase is active in animation. Her first graphic novel "SEI" was published by Image Comics in 2003, and she quickly moved on to illustrate more than a dozen graphic novels. Her art has been displayed at galleries around the world including the German Film Museum in Frankfurt, and the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark.

From Booklist:
Heres a graphic-novel spoof that shouldnt work but does: Nancy Drew, the iconic girl detective born in the syndicate age and still alive and adolescent 80 years on, seemingly dumps boyfriend Ned for the new kid in River Heights, Gregor the vampire. Friends and gofers to the girl detective, George and Bess engage Ned to help them sleuth on the sleuth. Text and dramatically colored images are nicely bound into a codependent stream, while the characters are drawn to appear as flat and stereotypical as Stratemeyer could ever imagine. There are plenty of cultural references at play here, but even the vampire-shy will find the silliness diverting. The cliff-hanger ending will leave readers dying for the next volume of the Nancy Drew: The New Case Files graphic-novel series, or maybe have them hopping into their roadsters to go save Nancyor maybe Gregor?themselves. Grades 9-12. --Francisca Goldsmith
