Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone

By Benjamin Stevenson
Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone by Benjamin Stevenson digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Knives Out and Clue meet Agatha Christie and The Thursday Murder Club in this “utterly original” (Jane Harper), “not to be missed” (Karin Slaughter), fiendishly clever blend of classic and modern murder mystery.

“A witty twist on classic whodunits… Stevenson not only 'plays fair,' he plays the mystery game very, very well.” -- Maureen Corrigan, Washington Post

Everyone in my family has killed someone. Some of us, the high achievers, have killed more than once. I’m not trying to be dramatic, but it is the truth. Some of us are good, others are bad, and some just unfortunate.

I’m Ernest Cunningham. Call me Ern or Ernie. I wish I’d killed whoever decided our family reunion should be at a ski resort, but it’s a little more complicated than that.

Have I killed someone? Yes. I have.

Who was it?

Let’s get started.

EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY HAS KILLED SOMEONE

My brother

My stepsister

Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone Reviews

3.5
“All-in-all this one felt a little boring, but the narrating the telling of the story was funny and gave it a unique feel. I truly didn’t know who the culprit was until it was announced, so that’s a win as well, though I did eye roll a bit when it was revealed lol (of course it’s the missing/thought dead brother)”
“I think this is a 5 star read for me because I just had so much fun. I’m not sure if it meets that on any other criteria but truly I just enjoyed every second of this book.”
Surprised Face with Open Mouth“I enjoyed the humor and the choice to have the narrator break the fourth wall, talking directly to the reader. The story kept me guessing all the way through, trying to solve the mystery. The big reveal towards the end wasn’t my favorite choice, but overall an enjoyable mystery.”
