Spy x Family, Vol. 1

Spy x Family, Volume 1 introduces one of the most delightful premises in modern manga. Codenamed "Twilight," the Western nation of Westalis's greatest spy is handed an impossible assignment: to get close to a reclusive and dangerous politician, he must pose as an ordinary family man, complete with a wife and a child, and infiltrate the country's most elite private school within a matter of days.

Scrambling to assemble a fake family, Twilight adopts a small orphan girl named Anya and enters a marriage of convenience with a graceful city-hall clerk named Yor. What he doesn't know is that his new daughter is a telepath who can read every mind around her—and that his new wife leads a secret double life as a deadly assassin. Each member of the Forger family is hiding an enormous secret from the others, all while trying to convince the world, and themselves, that they are perfectly normal.

Tatsuya Endo's blockbuster series blends slick spy-thriller action with sharp comedy and genuine warmth. This first volume launches a story about found family, in which three people faking their way through domestic life slowly, and against all odds, become something real.
