Girl With a Mission: Brittani Menchin Justice

By Dayle A. Dermatis

Brittani Menchin, decidedly not popular high school student, gained a reputation when she rescued some popular kids from their own stupidity.

A reputation as the Fixer.

 

And now head cheerleader Tara Kildare wants her help.

 

The parents of Tara's girlfriend, Chaya, want Tara arrested for the statutory rape of their daughter, because they don't condone the lesbian relationship.

 

That makes Brittani's blood boil…time to fix it.

 

Fans of Veronica Mars will love this first story featuring justice-seeking Brittani Menchin, not-quite-six-feet-tall math nerd and high school Fixer.
