"The Westing Game" by Ellen Raskin

I am currently reading "The Westing Game" by Ellen Raskin and so far it is a great book. It is about a rich gentleman named Samuel W. Westing who has possibly been murdered and it is up to 16 unlikley "nieces and nephews" of his to find out who the possible murder is. Grace, Jake, "Turtle" and Angela Wexler, Doug and Shin Hoo, Chris and Theo Theodorakis, Sydelle Pullaski, J.J. Ford, Sandy McSouthers, Barney Northrup and Mrs. Crow are just a few of the outstanding characters in this one-of-a-kind book.

Some of my classmates belive that Samuel Westing isn't real, that the rotting corpse "Turtle" saw was really Violet Westing's (Samuel's daughter) body. We won't know untill we finish the book!

"The Westing Game" is a well written, magnificent mystery, be sure to check it out!
