About the participants:
Kalyn Josephson is a New York Times bestselling author, sometimes-baker, and full-time consumer of too much tea. She lives on the California coast with two tiny black cats in a house in constant need of repair. She is the author of several fantasy series for kids, teens, and adults, as well as the owner of The Cove Books.
Autumn Krause was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. Her grandfather, his three siblings, and her great-grandmother were interned at Gila River Camp in Arizona during WWII, while her great-grandfather fought in the 442nd, the only all-Japanese regimental combat team. She writes: “The internment was knit into my life, a deep injustice never talked about with any theatrics, but always present, a memory living beyond the confines of its dates to form the backdrop of mine.” Autumn lives in Orange County, California, with her husband and children. She is a critically acclaimed author of Before the Devil Knows You're Here, an Amazon and Kirkus Best Book of the Year.
About the book:
A brand-new cozy gothic series that’s The Inheritance Games for middle grade readers—filled with family curses, talking cats, and clever clues!
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 Amos dies, all the Devlins come running to his manor for their piece of the inheritance—only to find a mysterious magical game instead. Whoever solves the riddles will win his fortune. But everything is not what it seems, like the misfit cousin with secrets to hide and the crimson-eyed cat who only talks to Kit. As the clues stack up, Kit learns there’s more to the family curse—and her connection to it—than she ever suspected. If she wants answers, she has to survive the game... and win.
