Now read on to discover the cover, synopsis, and what Catherine has to say about her stunning cover!

SYNOPSIS

Thirteen-year-old Maddie just wants her classmate, Lucas, to leave her alone. He keeps asking her out—as if she hasn’t already said no a thousand times! Focusing on her competitive swim team, the Electric Eels, Maddie tries to ignore him, hoping he’ll go away.

But then, when someone starts sabotaging Maddie’s family-owned pool—glass on the deck, ketchup in the pool, followed by a “code brown”—Maddie worries it’s her “admirer” trying to get even. After Maddie’s parents rule the problems at the pool just harmless pranks, Maddie and her best friend Ez decide to investigate on their own. Could it be Lucas? And how can Maddie get him to leave her alone once and for all? The future of the Electric Eels and Maddie’s family legacy are on the line.

Catherine on Flip Turns cover: “In FLIP TURNS, 13-year old Maddie is solving more than one mystery! She’s unraveling the case of who’s vandalizing her family’s community pool, but she’s also working through the complications of how to get one boy to leave her alone, and how to have a crush on another one, as well as dealing with friendships and swim races and managing her anxiety. I love how the cover artist shows Maddie’s confused and curious emotions so clearly on her face and in the way she’s holding the unwanted snow globe. I also love how the colors and design of the cover just feels like summer!”
