About this listen

A brand-new cozy gothic series that’s The Inheritance Games for middle grade readers—filled with family curses, talking cats, and clever clues!

“Mix Mr. Lemoncello with Wednesday Addams, and you’ll end up with the dark fun of The Grimlore Game!”—Chris Grabenstein, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Mr. Lemoncello's Library series


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 Ambrose dies, all the Devlins come running to his remote 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
