Samantha Spinner and the Super-Secret Plans is a children's mystery novel centered on an eponymous character, Samantha, an 11-year-old from Seattle. Her uncle Paul went missing, and left her siblings expensive gifts – her brother, Nipper, received the New York Yankees – but he gave Samantha only a rusty red umbrella.

The underside of the umbrella contains a map of secret passages which they expect will help find Samantha's uncle, but outlaw ninjas from the sewers are in pursuit of them.[1]

The story uses Samantha's brother Nipper as a device to add educational content to the story.[2]

The book was written by Russell Ginns, who has written over 100 books and also designed video game software.[3]
