Synopsis

For twenty-five years, Ellen Raskin's Newbery Medal-winning The Westing Game has been an enduring favorite and is now being reissued with a brand-new jacket by Kevin Hawkes and an introduction by Ann Durell.

This highly inventive mystery involves sixteen people who are invited to the reading of Samuel W. Westing's will. They could become millionaires, depending on how they play the tricky and dangerous Westing game, which involves blizzards, burglaries, and bombings. Ellen Raskin has entangled a remarkable cast of characters in a puzzle-knotted, word-twisting plot filled with humor, intrigue, and suspense.

"A supersharp mystery . . . Confoundingly clever, and very funny."

From the Author

GOOD BOOK
THE WESTING GAME IS GREAT. ALL OF THE CHARACTERS ARE SWIRLED TOGETHER INTO A WHIRLWIND OF A PLOT THAT TWISTS AND TURNS WITH EACH ADVANCING CHAPTER. READ IT IN SIXTH GRADE AND I'D READ IT AGAIN.
