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.
