looking for the title of this book and or auther?

A few years ago I read a book & now I can't remember the title OR author & I want to find that book ! The basic story line was: a guy ( maybe a criminal ? ) discovered a shallow ( barely below the surface ? ) rock out in the ocean & decided to create his own island. He contracted with some garbage barges to have them dump their barges on top of this rock & eventually he created an island. Then he somehow got the United Nations to recognize his island as a new nation, etc. He developed the island, built hotels & casinos, formed an Army & Navy, had a few battles & so on, etc.

the canopy you defined is that from the Puffin present day Classics version of the The Westing activity by ability of Ellen Raskin. The e book follows Turtle, a tom boyish form female who hates her real call (which i do no longer blame her this is Tabita-Ruth). Turtle and different citizens of the sunset Towers discover out that they could be heirs to the fortune of Mr. Sam Westing. although, they ought to remedy the puzzle to who has taken his existence. they're split into communities of two, and each and each group is given a set of 5 likely random words. interior the top no person is asserted the winner, although Turtle does surely remedy the elect. The doorman you have been speaking approximately had 4 aliases Eastman, McSouthers, Northup, and Westing. this is been a whilst on condition that I examine it so i do no longer bear in suggestions which alias is which. using fact Turtle solved the elect, Sam (or Sandy McSouthers the doorman, that alias I do bear in suggestions) takes Turtle under his wing and turns into the inheritor of his will. Westing activity grew to become into additionally made right into a movie back interior the mid-90s stated as Get a Clue!. They style of twisted up the plot, yet for a toddler's movie this is not any longer no longer undesirable.
