Book's Summary !
When the parents of Violet (14), Klaus (12) and baby Sunny Baudelaire die in a house fire, Mr. Poe, the will executor, places them with a distant relative named Count Olaf. Olaf is an evil actor who intends to steal the Baudelaire orphans' fortune. He gives the children unreasonable chores, threatens their lives and makes them share one small bed. The children experience small pockets of joy by spending time with neighbour Justice Strauss (a judge) and perusing her vast library.
Olaf discovers that he can legally obtain Violet's fortune by making her his wife. He disguises his plan by telling the children and Justice Strauss that they'll all be performing in a play called "The Marvelous Marriage." Violet and Klaus read up on inheritance law in Justice Strauss' library and figure out Olaf's scheme. The siblings manage to save their parents inheritance from falling into Olaf's hand. It seems like it is a bad beginning indeed for them but hey, It's just a beginning right? :)
