Gordon Bramble, a student at the Legatum Continuatum School for the Descendants of Famous Detectives, is a pleasant-faced, freckled boy who should know better than to hang around with David Wiffle. The two boys, who are members of Van Helden House, are always making trouble for Amanda and her friends. It's too bad, because Gordon is a smart kid, but he lets David hold him back.

Gordon first appears in Book 1 of the Amanda Lester series, Amanda Lester and the Pink Sugar Conspiracy.
