Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone: A Novel (The Ernest Cunningham Mysteries, 1)

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.

I listened to the audiobook version of this one - my first "purchased" audible book. Overall I enjoyed it - though there are so many characters it was hard to keep track. The premise of the narrator writing the book was fun and there were a number of things said that made me laugh out loud. I might go back and listen again to see if the clues jump out at me a bit more than they did - the twist I didn't see coming.

Didn't finish. Slow moving, way too much description of everyday places/items instead of gripping storyline. Got lost/bored in all the extra details.

A book club pick and an easy read. I’m not sure how I feel about the narrator breaking the fourth wall, but it was interesting. The author/narrator tells you to pay attention to the Easter eggs and then ties it all up in the end. I knew who the killer was, but I didn’t know WHO the killer was…ITKYK Book #10 in 2025
