A supersharp mystery…confoundingly clever, and very funny. -Booklist, starred review A bizarre chain of events begins when sixteen unlikely people gather for the reading of Samuel W. Westing’s will. And though no one knows why the eccentric, game-loving millionaire has chosen a virtual stranger-and a possible murderer-to inherit his vast fortune, on things for sure- Sam Westing may be dead…but that won’t stop him from playing one last game!

Great fun for those who enjoy illusion, word play, or sleight of hand. -The New York Times Book Review
A fascinating medley of word games, disguises, multiple aliases, and subterfuges-a demanding but rewarding book. -The Horn Book
