No, Frankie is still going strong, proud of the disreputable history she's created all on her own. She's alone in the end, having lost her boyfriend and having been rejected by the entire Loyal Order. That's why in the end the book is named just for Frankie and not for the whole group. The book therefore becomes Frankie's own story, rather than the story of the Loyal Order of the Basset Hounds. Just Frankie making things happen for herself and for others. This isn't a story about Frankie as part of a collective this is a story about Frankie. She desperately wants to fit in and be accepted, and even thinks that if she masterminds the pranks and they find out, they'll initially be mad but might let her in after they've cooled off.īut over the course of the book, Frankie manages to make things happen all by herself. When Frankie discovers that book, she's still trying to get in with the Basset Hounds, even though she's a girl. This is the story of how she got that way.
Frankie Landau-Banks, at age 16: No longer the kind of girl to take 'no' for an answer and possibly a criminal mastermind.

The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks is a play on the history of the secret society that Frankie manages to find: The Disreputable History of the Loyal Order of the Basset Hounds. Frankie Landau-Banks at age 15: A knockout figure.
