A select group of people are invited to move into Sunset Towers along Lake Michigan. There are stories among the people that the Westing mansion is haunted. One night, Turtle accepts a dare and enters the mansion where she finds the body of Sam Westing.
Sixteen people are called to the reading of the will of Sam Westing's will. Mr Westing was a multimillionaire. He gathered these people, put them in teams of two, and the 'winner' would get his inheritance. Although he has passed, Sam Westing plays games with the teams, making them work for their inheritance.
The idea of the story and the reviews I read, it sounded like a good book. But I never got into it. The character development was not great. There have been other books around this same idea that are much better.
