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 remote Scottish manor for their piece of the inheritance--only to find a mysterious, magical game instead. Whoever solves his riddles will win his fortune. But everything is not what it seems, like the crimson-eyed cat who only talks to Kit and the misfit cousin with secrets to hide. As the clues grow more perilous, Kit learns there's more to the family curse--and her spellbinding 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 Ever
