Ellen Raskin was a writer, illustrator, and designer. She was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and grew up during the Great Depression. She primarily wrote for children. She received the 1979 Newbery Medal for her 1978 book, The Westing Game.
Ms. Raskin was also an accomplished graphic artist. She designed dozens of dust jackets for books, including the first edition of Madeleine L'Engle's classic A Wrinkle in Time.
She married Dennis Flanagan, editor of Scientific American, in 1965.
Raskin died at the age of 56 on August 8, 1984, in New York City due to complications from connective tissue disease.
A bizarre chain of events begins when sixteen unlikely people gather for the reading of Samuel W. Westing's will. And though no one knows why the eccentric, game-loving millionaire has chosen a virtual stranger - and a possible murderer - to inherit his vast fortune, one thing's for sure: Sam Westing may be dead... but that won't stop him from playing one last game!

mind blown after all these years wonder if my obsession with apartment complexes originated from here for ten-year old me plot too complicated to follow characters too delicate to understand could do with a less perfect ending
評分故事緊湊流暢,謎題設計巧妙,其實更適閤大人讀。

評分很棒的YA Mystery書。乾乾淨淨的。人物有點眾多,如果我是看書的話,一定會畫一個人物關係錶格。最後說道作者的去世,很令人傷心。
