Veronica Mars - the TV series: From Zero to Sixty (Kindle Worlds Novella)

Life isn't easy for Veronica Mars. Between school and helping her dad run his business, she also has to balance a social life with the few odd jobs she takes. Granted, she no longer goes to 09er parties or spends her days shopping and sunbathing with Lilly Kane on account of her best friend being murdered, but that doesn't mean there aren't other obligations in her life. Instead, Veronica has become somewhat of an outcast at Neptune High, but her pariah status has greatly improved her detective abilities, especially after befriending Wallace and Mac.

When Meg Manning, one of Veronica's former Pep Squad pals and Duncan Kane's newest girlfriend, needs help finding out who stole her car from the Neptune High parking lot, Veronica offers to look into the matter. As she investigates, she uncovers the seedier side of Neptune, including street racing on the PCH, a chop shop, and underground betting.

To further complicate matters, Veronica is determined to keep her new relationship with Logan Echolls a secret, but Logan soon becomes suspicious and jealous when she keeps disappearing and he spots her spending time with Weevil, as if Lilly's dalliance with the biker wasn't already a thorn in his side. Can she balance out her private life with her private investigating? Or will some aspects of the teen sleuth's busy schedule fall to the wayside?
