"Mix Mr. Lemoncello with Wednesday Addams, and you'll end up with the dark fun of The Grimlore Game!"--Chris Grabenstein, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Mr. Lemoncello's Library series SOLVE THE PUZZLES. SURVIVE THE GAME. Orphan Kit Devlin knows two things for sure about her scheming relatives: 1. They're cursed, with someone doomed to croak every three years like clockwork.
2. They only care about one thing: themselves. When wealthy Grandpa Amos dies, all the Devlins come running to his manor for their piece of the inheritance--only to find a mysterious magical game instead. Whoever solves the riddles will win his fortune. But everything is not what it seems, like the misfit cousin with secrets to hide and the crimson-eyed cat who only talks to Kit. As the clues stack up, Kit learns there's more to the family curse--and her connection to it--than she ever suspected. If she wants answers, she has to survive the game... and win. "Gothic, twisty, and so much fun."--Lindsay Currie, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Mystery of Locked Rooms "[This] house full of mysteries and magical curses had me hooked from page one." --Jen Calonita, New York Times bestselling author of Isle of EverAuthor Biography
