On the day they are born, every Swift child is brought before the sacred Family Dictionary. They are given a name, and a definition. A definition it is assumed they will grow up to match.
Meet Shenanigan Swift: Little sister. Risk-taker. Mischief-maker.
Shenanigan is getting ready for the big Swift Family Reunion and plotting her next great scheme: hunting for Grand-Uncle Vileās long-lost treasure. Sheās excited to finally meet her arriving relativesāuntil one of them gives Arch-Aunt Schadenfreude a deadly shove down the stairs.
So what if everyone thinks sheāll never be more than a troublemaker, just because of her name? Shenanigan knows she can become whatever she wants, even a detective. And sheās determined to follow the twisty clues and catch the killer.
Deliciously suspenseful and delightfully clever, The Swifts is a remarkable debut that is both brilliantly contemporary and instantly classic. A celebration of words and individuality, itās packedĀ with games, wordplay, and lots and lots of mischief as Shenanigan sets out to save her family and define herself in a world where definitions are so important.
