Paranormal mystery meets conspiracy thriller in this action-packed comic for young adults starring Sophie Cooper, a brilliant student-intern-turned-sci-fi-sleuth out to clear her family's name. Meet fourteen-year-old Sophie Cooper—red-headed Cuban-American, high school freshman, and daughter of a loving father currently under house arrest for embezzlement and money laundering. While her mother struggles to support the family and her bratty younger brother, Kit, sits around tinkering with his "inventions," Sophie has only one goal: clearing her father's name. When an internship opens up at the local news station, Sophie seizes the chance to do a little investigating of her own. Unfortunately, WMIA 7 isn't exactly CNN. In between logging Betacam tapes and fetching coffee for the station's washed-up reporting team, Sophie sifts through the "broken stories": crank-calls and dead-end tips reporting everything from UFOs to alligator-men. However, one name keeps popping up: Matheson Savings and Trust, the bank that accused Sophie's father of money laundering. Sounds like a conspiracy to this cub reporter! Determined to follow her lead, Sophie sets out to investigate the weirdness, uncover a conspiracy, and clear her family's name . . just as soon as she finishes her homework.

Famous for its revolutionary aspects in musical, political, sexual identity and consumerist ideas, punk rock also has its lesser-known gangster ethos as well, explained here by players in the various punk gangs. The Los Angeles, Orange County, and South Bay punk scenes, populated by blue collar kids who responded to the violence and aggression of punk songs and shows. A number of them formed punk gangs that got into beatings, drug dealing and murder. Among them, no gang was more notorious than La Mirada Punks, or LMP. Says LMP chieftain Frank the Shank after getting arrested by police for murder: "After having my hands in so much bloodshed over the years, I most certainly had it coming. I deserved whatever I got." Unexpectedly Frank was bailed out from prison by his father's friend, a mob gangster. "Too many people died at the hands of punk rock violence," said Frank. "I got lucky, some didn't. As an ultra-violent punk rock gangster, I admit my part in ruining the scene. L.A. punk was a magical moment of youth expression like no other. And the gangs ruined punk rock. I still have people telling me today that they quit punk because of LMP. I dig graves at a small cemetery just outside Los Angeles. What else would you expect for Frank the Shank?" Cover illustration by the renowned Raymond Pettibon. "Disco&;s Out … Murder&;s In! is one of my favorite books of all time. I devoured it—An absolute page-turner. It&;s an exciting and visceral account of the LA suburbs in the 80&;s and an anti-coming of age story. It felt like I was right there. This book is so fucking punk – READ IT!" — Terry Richardson Photographer/Director "If you've never been in the jungle, a story about a tiger is just a story. Yes, you may shiver... but to you, it's still just a story, an exciting escape from your every day life. But not to me, I've been in the Jungle, I've been bitten by tigers, chased by animals, and faced death in the tree line. It's real, it's frightening, and the savagery of that world haunts you forever. I was afraid when I read this book. I caught my fingers tracing over old scars as I turned the pages, and I knew it was real. You can tell yourself that people like this don&;t exist, but they do, and they would be pleased to meet you in the dark night of a hardcore boulevard — Disco&;s out … Murder&;s in!" — Jack Grisham Author/Singer TSOL
