In the book "The Westing Game" 16 heirs get $10,000 to figure out who killed Samuel W. Westing. The winner gets $200 million. The sixteen heirs gathered in the westing house to read Samuel W. Westing's will. The westing game began. I liked this book because it had a lot of cliffs hangers and plot twists. This is a very good book because I love drama and murder mysteries. It is very exhilarating. It was very taunting to keep reading. I definitely recommend this book.

The Westing Game is an amazing book, it has lots of plot twists, mind games and so much more! There are 16 heirs who each have the trust of Samuel W. Westing to avenge him, well, everyone but the mistake. Barney Northrup sold apartments to the 16 heirs in Sunset Towers which have 1 bomber,1 bookie, 1 robber and the mistake. Which heir killed Samuel W. Westing? Either way, don't trust anyone and keep your enemies close...

In the Westing Games 16 hers try to find out who killed their uncle Sam W Westing. If they do they will win 200 million. But one thing I did not tell you is that Sam was murdered by one of them and only one can win. In my opinion this book is good because of the plot twists and the odd ending.

Do you think you could follow the clues and find out who murdered Sam W. Westing to win millions? Sixteen heirs are invited to Sunset Towers for the reading of Sam W. Westing’s will. The will turns out to be a complex game with many twists and turns. The Westing Game is a really good book. It is a murder mystery with mysterious clues and many exciting plot twists. Characters in this book include a bomber, a thief and a murderer. Who will solve the crime? If there even was one…

Westing Games is a book with a lot of mystery. In the beginning its perplexed but it all make sense at the end. Its about 17 people tring to figure out who killed Samuel W Westing. At the end there's a colossal plop twist that will get you on your feet. Totally Recommend.

I 10/10 recommend Westing Games. In Sunset Towers an old man named Samuel W Westing is dead and now his 16 heirs have to find out who killed him. Whoever finds out who killed him first wins $200 million . What I have learned is to never trust any of the charterers and there are many plot twists along the way. Also my be confusing in the beginning but makes scene at the end .

In Westing games it begins with sixteen heirs that are figuring out someones death who is Samuel W westing but its a game for a cool $200,000 million dollars. According to the text this book was made in 1978. This book has a bunch of mysteries and plot twits. Sunset towers is how it all started in lake Michigan we call it the Westing house. No one has ever gotten a chance as big as $200,000 million. There is a bookie,boomer,thief,mistake and a murder... They live in sunset towers that has a restaurant and a coffee shop but right next to it is the westing house dont trust the guests they all can be hiding a big secret who was the one that killed Samuel westing
