Randomly saw a reference to the young-adult book, The Westing Game, today, and I instantly recognized it as a book I read. I remember one point in particular, the moment when everyone receives their clues to the identity of the person responsible for the death of Sam Westing.
Instead of opening their clue straight-away, one pair instead watches and listens as the others open their clues, thus gaining valuable information while not revealing their own clue.
Brilliant! : o )
It appears the book takes place on "the shore of Lake Michigan, somewhere in Wisconsin," which may explain why it came to my attention.
