Pip Fitz-Amobi is not your average A-plus student. She's an intense, cunning girl addicted to the purpose a mystery gives her, and is awfully skilled at getting to the bottom of things. She lives in Little Kilton, an English town seemingly quaint but riddled with secrets. Pip is portrayed as a strong, intelligent, and resourceful character. She has lily-white skin; sun-bleached brown hair, a lighter brown at the tips; and muddy-green eyes (blue in the TV adaptation) braced for impact.
