Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone

A Novel

De: Benjamin Stevenson

Narrado por: Barton Welch

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.

The BEST Audible I've EVER listened to!

From the first sentence until the last, I was completely hooked. I feel in love with Ern and actually the rest of his very real and flawed family. Laugh out loud funny. Extremely clever and heartbreakingly sad. But throughout the entire journey, I was so entertained. I don't remember an Audible I've loved more. I would give this 10 star if I could.

So fun

What a great mix of drama, humor, and mystery. I don’t mean it’s laugh out loud funny, but it’s serious and lighthearted at the same time. What a surprise and a pleasant surprise at that. Mysteries and thrillers tend to be my go to. It’s wonderful to find one that surprises me. This mystery is worthy of.Benoit Blanc.

Fantastic

Absolutely loved this book. Fun and intriguing. Highly. Recommend! Also the guy who reads this book is one of the best I’ve heard.

Fun story and loved the humor!

I loved the story, the narrator, and the humor. Nothing in this story was predictable for me, even though he gives you all the info. I’m looking forward to reading his other books!

Excellent listen

I enjoyed how this story was written — it felt fresh and bright, despite the fact people kept dying.

Really great book

I’m not necessarily good at discovering the bad person but mostly I do know who is it.
But in this case, it was quite difficult and I loved it and the turn of events.

Love this book!

Great plot, I didn’t want to stop listening! Looking forward to more by this author.

great title . fun read

Even considering all the clues the author provided and the times he stopped to review, to make sure the listener was up to speed and understanding, the end tapestry he wove had so many threads I wasn't able to piece them together, although I had thought of most of the pieces and design. Great author. Love the sense of humor and talking to the reader/listener to help us along

Good book

This is a very enjoyable book. I haven’t read a book with this kind format/performance before, but I liked it.

An interestingly fun read!

Though written a bit differently than I'm used to, this was a very enjoyable read with some unexpected comedy thrown in throughout.
