Not only that, but Velma is also working at the same amusement park just to help her family make ends meet. Velma is dealing with being an outcast to everyone around her while her dad is suffering from crippling depression and her mom is the manager at the local theme park. Daphne is dealing with the hurt of her parents being divorced and co-parenting. This novel handles a lot of difficult topics in a very realistic way. So let’s see how The Vanishing Girl stands up to the typical Scooby-Doo formula. You have references to fan-favorite characters, as well as characters the author created herself. If you are a fan of the Scooby-Doo franchise, the fan service is all here. Especially since the truth might be stranger-and scarier-than either girl can imagine… Now the whole town believes those same forces are back…and up to no good.ĭaphne and Velma may be the only ones who can solve the mystery and save Marcy-if they can trust each other enough to try.
A century ago, there was a wave of disappearances in Crystal Cove, and many local people believe that supernatural forces were behind it. When they run into each other in the halls of Crystal Cove High, they look the other way.īut then Daphne’s best friend, Marcy-who happens to be Velma’s cousin-goes missing. These days, Daphne’s deep in the popular crowd, daughter of the richest family in town, while Velma’s an outsider, hiding from the world behind her thick glasses. The two girls grew up together-they’d been best friends since pre-K-but when they hit middle school, Daphne dropped Velma and never looked back. They aren’t enemies either, but they don’t have any reason to speak to each other, and that’s how they prefer it. Popular Daphne Blake and über-nerd Velma Dinkley are not friends.
