THE INHERITANCE GAMES Jennifer Lynn Barnes Illustrated by Katt Phatt
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.
