Welcome to VickiGrant.com, featuring award-winning Young Adult comic novels, mysteries and high-low fiction.

After a career in advertising and television, Vicki wrote her first novel, The Puppet Wrangler, in 2004. She was immediately hooked on writing for Young Adults. Quid pro Quo, her next novel, quickly became a bestseller and won The Arthur Ellis Award for Best Juvenile Crime fiction.

Vicki also has a particular interest in reluctant readers. Her high-low thrillers for teens - Dead-End Job, Pigboy, and I.D. - have all been named American Library Association's Quick Picks.

She's currently at work on Res Judicata, a sequel to Quid Pro Quo. Vicki lives in Halifax with her husband and three children.
