The Cat And The Canary

When an elderly man dies, some of his relatives gather to hear the reading of the will. However, when the man's attorney reads it, it becomes clear how much the old man despised and loathed his worthless kin. In an intriguing twist, his will, as illustrated by a video he left behind for his remaining family, is structured in such a way as to set up a dogfight between his potential heirs to determine who will collect his fortune.

My take

A darkly comedic mystery where family greed collides with revenge from beyond the grave. Perfect for those who enjoy their laughs served with a side of suspense and a dash of macabre wit.
