Dinah Lance isn’t about to let anyone stop her – not the school principal and certainly not her parents. She wants to join the junior police academy and follow in her father’s footsteps. Dinah has no idea why the school principle seems to have it out for her; it’s not her fault that strange things keep happening around her.
The more trouble follows Dinah, the more she learns about herself. Maybe she is actually causing all the strange events. Now, she just needs to learn how to control herself and not let her anger get the better of her.
In this first graphic novel by Meg Cabot, she writes a tale about a young girl who learns how to speak up and control her voice. This middle-grade book focuses on secrets, danger, super powers, friendship, school drama, and saving the world. With great illustrations to match, this book is sure to win lots of fans.
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Princess Diariescomes Black Canary: Ignite, Meg Cabot's first graphic novel!

Thirteen-year-old Dinah Lance knows exactly what she wants, who she is, and where she's going. First, she'll win the battle of the bands with her two best friends, then she'll join the Gotham City Junior Police Academy so she can solve crimes just like her dad. Who knows, her rock star group of friends may even save the world, but first they'll need to agree on a band name.
When a mysterious figure keeps getting in the way of Dinah's goals and threatens her friends and family, she'll learn more about herself, her mother's secret past, and navigating the various power chords of life.
