And they certainly don't make her miserable after-school job any more bearable. When unexpected letters start appearing in peculiar places--sealed in bags of dog food and hidden in the refrigerator--Mullory knows she should avoid them to heed her mother's warning, but her curiosity thinks otherwise. She uncovers an invitation from Stoutmire Estate to compete in a game of Mystery Royale for the chance at a sizable inheritance. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDizzy with the prospect of billions, Mullory enters the game only to unearth the true prize--the illusionary magical properties of Xavier Stoutmire, a recluse without an heir. A recluse who was expected to keep his magic in the family, especially when there isn't enough for each member. With a prize worth killing for, the game is simple: be the first to solve the mystery--who killed Xavier Stoutmire? One week full of lavish parties dripping with enchantments, in a mansion brimming with clues of the past, and everyone's a suspect. To win, Mullory will need to untangle a twisted family web and decide who she can trust... \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhitaker Stoutmire, the golden boy who's harboring deadly secrets? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEllison Stoutmire, his closed off twin, who saw something she shouldn't have? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLyric Stoutmire the youngest sibling, exiled by the family and burning with resentment? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOr Mateo Maldonado, the only other outsider whose reserved manner allows him to hide in the shadows...
