The Guessing Jar
Eight people are brought together by a simple game, The Guessing Jar. Taking one guess will change their lives forever.
Agatha Garagan is a wealthy woman — perhaps, the richest in
America. As she approaches her twilight years, Agatha must decide who will receive her inheritance. Her plan is to give the fortune to a total stranger. But who? She devices a game, a guessing jar, filled with jelly beans of all things. Many take a stab, but only the top eight, will be selected to compete for the money.
The group moves into the Garagan Mansion for one month. During that time, Agatha, watches, listens, and learns, as she decides who will win the wealth. The mystery begins when two of the contestants are poisoned. Who is trying to kill them? Is it a ploy to win the competition, or something else?
Some of them are not who they seem. And the truth, may kill them.

Great characters in this novel. I so enjoyed the story. A reminder to find value in friendship and follow your instincts. The game was certainly a game-changer, but perhaps the threat remains.
