Shenanigan knows she can become whatever she wants, even a detective. And she´s 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, it's packed 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.Cover may vary.
