Dear Reader, Inspired by the collision of characters, imagery, and lore of Taylor Swift's song lyrics, this work of fiction is a coming-of-age story for every Swiftie who can relate to the unbearable feelings of love and loss - all too well. Thirteen-year-old Betty has just lost her grandma, got dumped by her best friend, was ghosted by her summer crush James, and suddenly finds herself all alone in her new high school. Seeking refuge in the approval of her favorite teacher, Betty reluctantly agrees to help write music for the school's Christmas concert. In the process, she discovers old letters and sheet music left behind by her grandmother, Marjorie, which include clues to solve the mystery of Rebekah Harkness and the diamonds of "The Last Great American Dynasty."
