About this Item
First edition. John Newbery Medal winner. Fine in a fine bright dust jacket with John Newbery medal affixed to the front cover. A cleverly devised puzzle mystery. Sixteen people were invited to the reading of a very strange will of the very rich Samuel W. Westing. They could become millionaires, depending on how they played the game. The not-quite-perfect heirs were paired, and each pair was given $10,000 and a set of clues, of which no two sets of clues were alike. All they had to do was find the answer, but the answer to what? The Westing game was tricky and dangerous, but the heirs played on, through blizzards and burglaries and bombs bursting in air. And one of them won! A better read than many of today's contemporary mystery novels. Housed in a colorfully decorative clamshell case with the book's dust jacket design replicated on the front cover.
