October 28th Book:
The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin
The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin
From Goodreads:
For nearly fifty years, Ellen Raskin’s Newbery Medal-winning The Westing Game has been an enduring favorite.
This highly inventive mystery involves sixteen people who are invited to the reading of Samuel W. Westing’s will. They could inherit a cool $200 million; all he or she has to do is expose Mr. Westing’s murderer, who also happens to be one of the heirs. As they are paired up and furnished with a set of clues, each scrambles to unravel the murder mystery while also being forced to play the tricky and dangerous Westing game, which involves blizzards, burglaries, and bombings.
Sam Westing may be dead … but that won’t stop him from playing one last game!
Ellen Raskin’s imaginative use of subterfuge, illusion, and word games will fascinate anyone who loves a clever challenge. She has entangled a remarkable cast of characters in a puzzle-knotted, word-twisting plot filled with humor, intrigue, and suspense. Readers are guaranteed a good time as they attempt to solve the mystery before the characters do.
