Sounds like Griselda, written by the incorrigible Oliver Dickinson. Reaching Moon published The Collected Griselda in '93, Issaries published the Complete Griselda in '01.

I'm not sure of the status of either volume at this point, I'm sure Rick can say.

Complete Griselda lists the following Bibliography:

Lucky Eddi - White Dwarf ("WD") 29
Griselda Gets Her Man - WD 30
A Tasty Morsel - WD 41
Shamus Gets a Case - WD 42
Hanufa's Little Sister - WD 43
The Great Chart Caper - Pavis boxed set (or I assume in the Pavis & Big Rubble reprint from Moon Design)
All in the Family - WD 51
Down Among the Dead Men - Different Worlds ("DW") 43 Bad Example - DW 44
Good Advice - DW 45
Holding the Baby - Green Slime 1, Tales of the reaching Moon ("TotRM") 4 Wolfhead's Story - TotRM 2
Serious Money - TotRM 3
This Love Business - TotRM 5
Carving Up Carver - TotRM 6

Devil's Play - TotRM 8
Worlds Apart - Convulsion Program(me) Book 1992

Griselda Song 1 - Convulsion Program(me) Book 1992 Red Hot - TotRM 9

++All of the above are in Collected Griselda++ ++The items above *and* below are in Complete Griselda++

The Matchmaker - Peoples of Pavis
First Class Protection - Peoples of Pavis Points of View - Tradetalk 8
Griselda the Hero?? - Complete Griselda ("CG") The Trouble with Nephews - CG

Finally, she (and Wolfhead, and members of the gang) appears statted up in Wolfhead's Lair, in the Big Rubble boxed set.

Hope that helps.
