Smart house / Book 3

Gary Elringer, an eccentric young computer genius, had sunk most of his company's funds into the construction of Smart House--much to the dismay of stockholders, most of whom were family and friends. But, when Gary invited them all to a game of Assassin in the newly built house, he never dreamed he'd wind up dead for real. And, when one of the stockholders ends up dead, it's clear that nothing less than murder is afoot in Smart House. Constance Leidl and Charlie Meiklejohn's investigations soon show that all of Gary's guests had reasons for wanting him dead--but everyone's alibi is as well constructed as the house itself. Which leads to the next obvious question: Could the house be the killer? Just how smart is Smart House?

  • "The ultimate dream of child prodigy Gary Elringer, the founder of Bellringer Company, producers of computer hardware and software, was to create a total, computer-controlled environment. Much to the dismay of the stockholders, he uses the firm's profits to build a futuristic dwelling in North Bend, Oreg., called Smart House. Gary invites the nine naysayers there, so they can experience first-hand its remarkable capabilities. More importantly, he wants to thwart a takeover of Bellringer by his jealous brother, Bruce. Gary's weekend festivities call for everyone's participation in a game called Assassin; in the midst of the contest, Gary and architect Rich Schoen are found dead, the apparent victims of a computer glitch. Charlie and Constance must unravel the bizarre circumstances surrounding their demise."
