Amy and Dan are invited, by golden invitation, to the reading of their beloved Grandma Grace's will. Instead of inheriting her mansion and wealth, they are asked to choose between a million dollar check and the chance to play a game that could make them the most powerful people in history. Of course they choose the game, along with 12 other family members who will do anything to win. Each book in this series is written by a different author. Maze of Bones is followed by One False Note by popular author Gordon Korman.
