Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
2022's most original and darkly funny murder mystery from award-winning comedian Benjamin Stevenson.
I was dreading the Cunningham family reunion even before the first murder. Before the storm stranded us at the mountain resort.
The thing is, us Cunninghams don't really get along.
We've only got one thing in common: we've all killed someone.
My brother, my step-sister, my wife, my father, my mother, my sister-in-law, my uncle, my step-father, my aunt. Even me.
When they find the first body in the snow, it's clear that only a Cunningham could have committed the crime—and it's up to me to prove it.
There are plenty of killers in my family. But only one murderer....

Fun ride
A good, modern-world detective novel can be hard to find. This is one of them. Can get a bit smug in places but it's well-earned smugness.

Slow but strong burner
So I took a while to get into this and I had to go back a few times to understand who was who and what plot line affected what character etc. That being said after about an hour in it really picked up! Quite dark at some points, lots of twists too.

A really enjoyable tale
I loved this audiobook. Really enjoyed how the narrator was taking directly to the reader/listener. Cleverly formulaic without giving anything away. Was sad when it ended.

Gripping!
The only time I wanted to put this down was when I stopped to review all of the cleverly laid out threads and try to sleuth it myself - it gave just enough to satisfy my detective-work ego whilst still having lots of shocks in store that felt earned and earnest.

A fun and suspenseful ride all the way through
This book was a suggestion from a family friend that is known to have consumed a number of horror/murder mysteries. So imagine my delightful surprise when I realised that this book was a morder day light hearted murder mystery. I liked the refreshing factor that our protagonist(s) were not detectives, investigators etc and were some normal people that stumbled upon a mystery. I appreciated a lot the addition of the 10 rules of murder mystery that he set himself to follow. It gave the opportunity for us listening/reading to solve the mystery and arrive at the correct solution even before the narrator/protagonist, without the fear that some random plot twist or plain coincidence was the answer.
The narrator also gives the right tone/pitch/emphasis when acting the dialogues. Which is something that I am thankful of since it helped me pick up on some theories that I wouldn't have if I was reading it. So prompts to him for that.
All in all, a very enjoyable read/listen and if you have a spare credit or some extra pounds in your bank out, i would highly recommend it. It was an enjoyable, light hearted and suspenful ride all the way through.

I need more like this!
I have to say I didn't expect to like it so much! Very different than anything I've read, it is a clever murder mystery with a whimsy. The author/narrator gives hints but not spoils. I really enjoyed how each chapter is dedicated to each of the persons involved, while still continuing with the plot. A very refreshing listen, I want more like it!

Set in Australia. I enjoyed it. The plot weaves back and forth.
Twist in the unusual tail. Amusing and witty in parts. Murderer was a surprise altogether.

fantastic modern mystery
I loved that this story contained the classic aspects of tbe mystery novels we all love, but made it new. Google is involved, as are phones and cameras.
I appreciated that it was a grim story but not horrifically graphic. Myself, like many people, read and listen for escapism, not realism. So the story was gritty enough without needing horrible language, unnecessary eroticism and haunting detail.
Overall I thought this was such a refreshingly enjoyable book that I thoroughly recommend.

Entertaining and unusual
A gentle whodunnit to match any Agatha Christie. When you feel a bit confused the author does a recap to get you back on track.
It’s an unusual style of writing breaking the fourth wall, and very well narrated.
Will look for more by this author

Pretty good
It took me a while to get into this book. However, once I did it was pretty good. I guessed some of the ending, but was surprised by the protagonist(s). It's more fun than the average crime novel.
