A mystery you don't read. You work. Constance Harlow has died, and you've inherited a job no one in her family wants you to do well. As the named executor of her sprawling, deliberately tangled estate, you must reconcile every account, expose every quiet theft, and distribute the inheritance correctly - across ten chapters of family infighting, missing paperwork, and advisors who are friendlier than they ought to be. Each chapter ends with a real financial puzzle. Solve it correctly and the next chapter unlocks; solve it wrong and you'll be just another easily-misled executor - exactly the kind Constance's heirs were hoping for. What you'll work through:Compound interest and growth-rate verification Simple-interest bond ladders Loan amortization The federal estate-tax exemption and step-up basis EBITDA and enterprise vs. equity value Charitable bequest allocation Bayes' theorem applied to a suspicious insurance claim And the calculation that finally exposes who has been lying the whole time No finance background is needed - every concept is taught in-chapter, and a complete Formula Reference is included in the back along with an Estate Ledger to track your work and a full Answer Key for after you've made your guesses. Written in the dry, literary register of classic British mystery, The Estate will appeal equally to fans of Anthony Horowitz's Magpie Murders, Robin Sloan's Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore, Ellen Raskin's The Westing Game, and to anyone who has ever wanted a novel that respected their intelligence enough to make them earn the ending. The total inheritance reconciles to a single, specific dollar figure. Will yours?
