Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett

This bewitching first novel is a puzzle, wrapped in a mystery, disguised as an adventure, and delivered as a work of art.

Chasing Vermeer joins the Scholastic Gold line, which features award-winning and beloved novels. Includes exclusive bonus content When a book of unexplainable occurences brings Petra and Calder together, strange things start to happen: Seemingly unrelated events connect; an eccentric old woman seeks their company; an invaluable Vermeer painting disappears. Before they know it, the two find themselves at the center of an international art scandal, where no one is spared from suspicion. As Petra and Calder are drawn clue by clue into a mysterious labyrinth, they must draw on their powers of intuition, their problem solving skills, and their knowledge of Vermeer. Can they decipher a crime that has stumped even the FBI?

Hold Tight, Chasing Vermeer (a Novel Sense Book of the Year and an Edgar Award winner), The Wright 3, The Calder Game, and The Danger Box are among Blue Balliett's bestselling and critically regarded mystery novels. She works from her home in Chicago, Illinois, in the laundry room, and her website is blueballiettbooks.com.
