The Inheritance Games

The Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes is the first installment in a thrilling young adult series that combines mystery, puzzles, and high-stakes drama.

Seventeen-year-old Avery Grambs has a simple plan for a better future: survive high school, win a scholarship, and escape her dead-end life. But her fortunes change dramatically when billionaire Tobias Hawthorne dies and inexplicably names Avery as the heir to his vast fortune. The catch? Avery has no idea who Tobias Hawthorne is.

To claim her inheritance, Avery must move into the sprawling Hawthorne House, filled with secret passages, riddles, and the disinherited Hawthorne family members who are less than pleased with her presence. Among them are the four Hawthorne grandsons, each more enigmatic than the last. As Avery navigates the treacherous waters of wealth and privilege, she becomes embroiled in a game of puzzles and clues, where the stakes are life and death.

This gripping novel is perfect for fans of One of Us Is Lying and Knives Out, offering a blend of suspense, romance, and mind-bending twists.
