Enjoy our presentation of Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett, published by Scholastic Press. When a book of unexplainable occurrences brings Petra and Calder together, strange things start to happen. Seemingly unrelated events begin to connect; an eccentric old woman seeks their company; and 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.

Chasing Vermeer  won the Edgar Award for Best Juvenile Mystery Novel.
