OVER 6 MILLION COPIES SOLD OF THE #1 BESTSELLING SERIES!

Don't miss this New York Times bestselling "impossible to put down" (Buzzfeed) novel with deadly stakes, thrilling twists, and juicy secrets—perfect for fans of One of Us is Lying and Knives Out.

Avery Grambs has a plan for a better future: survive high school, win a scholarship, and get out. But her fortunes change in an instant when billionaire Tobias Hawthorne dies and leaves Avery virtually his entire fortune. The catch? Avery has no idea why—or even who Tobias Hawthorne is.

To receive her inheritance, Avery must move into sprawling, secret passage-filled Hawthorne House, where every room bears the old man's touch—and his love of puzzles, riddles, and codes. Unfortunately for Avery, Hawthorne House is also occupied by the family that Tobias Hawthorne just dispossessed. This includes the four Hawthorne grandsons: dangerous, magnetic, brilliant boys who grew up with every expectation that one day, they would inherit billions. Heir apparent Grayson Hawthorne is convinced that Avery must be a conwoman, and he's determined to take her down. His brother, Jameson, views her as their grandfather's last hurrah: a twisted riddle, a puzzle to be solved. Caught in a world of wealth and privilege with danger around every turn, Avery will have to play the game herself just to survive.

***Don’t miss a moment of The Inheritance Games Saga, including the Grandest Game, the thrilling new series set in the world of the Inheritance Games.

Inheritance, Intrigue, and a Bit of Romance

Avery has a plan to build a better future for herself and her older sister, but everything changes when she unexpectedly inherits the fortune of billionaire Tobias Hawthorne. The catch is, she has never met the man and has no idea why he chose her over his own family. Suddenly thrown into a world of secrets, puzzles, and shifting loyalties, Avery must navigate danger, suspicion, and the cryptic games the late billionaire left behind, all while dealing with a family determined to reclaim what they believe is rightfully theirs. The Inheritance Games is a fast-paced, twist-filled YA mystery that blends the fun of a treasure hunt with the drama of a modern-day fairy tale. The layered puzzles and inheritance mystery keep the pages turning, while the characters (especially the four Hawthorne brothers) add tension, charm, and a touch of romantic intrigue. Each brother has a unique personality, adding depth and energy to the story. Avery is a strong, down-to-earth protagonist, and the contrast between her modest background and the world of unimaginable wealth shes thrown into adds a compelling dynamic. Some plot points lean into familiar YA tropes, but the execution is sharp and entertaining. The book strikes a solid balance between suspense and character development, making it enjoyable for both teen and adult readers. All in all, The Inheritance Games is a clever and engaging start to a series that offers just the right mix of mystery, escapism, and emotional depth to leave a lasting impression.
