The books are about Ronnie Ripperton, Fleur Swan and Claude Cassiera, a trio of minxish, pop-obsessed and boy-crazy friends who call themselves 'Les Bambinos Dangereuses'. LBD:IT'S A GIRL THING was published in 2003, followed by LBD:THE GREAT ESCAPE in 2004. Grace's new novel CURSE OF THE MEGA-BOOBED MUTANTS publishes in MAY 2006.
