Book Description
Finders, Keepers! Losers, Avarice!
Rich recluse Raymond Altheimer dies. His will, bequeathing the fabled Altheimer Mansion to his relatives, makes no mention of the hundreds of thousands of dollars he had accumulated during his life
Members of the Altheimer clan descend upon the now ruined house, convinced the missing fortune is hidden somewhere in its crumbling interior. But the mansion has been violated by a mysterious stranger who has two goals: the first, to find and keep the money for himself; and the second, to transform the family into victims of their own avarice.
