Set against the backdrop of a crime-writing festival aboard a luxury train, the narrative unfolds with a captivating blend of tension and humor. As the participants settle in, the atmosphere is charged with anticipation, but soon, the excitement spirals into chaos. A murder occurs, leaving everyone aboard as a potential suspect. The train becomes a microcosm of secrets, lies, and complicated relationships, forcing a motley crew of authors to grapple with their own narratives as they try to unravel the truth.

Amid the intrigue, the protagonist wrestles with personal demons while piecing together a complex puzzle that entangles not just the victim but also the colorful cast of characters. Stevenson masterfully weaves a tale that keeps readers on the edge of their seats, balancing wit with twists that challenge notions of trust and creativity. Engaging and unpredictable, this story explores the intersection of artistry and morality within a tightly confined space.

The wit and fourth-wall breaking of 'Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone' had me excited about a sequel. This book seems to break the fourth wall even more, with the narrator guiding the reader along in solving the murder mystery, spelling out what will happen next. I loved it. Imagine Deadpool, if he were genuine human being who was nicer, telling you a classic murder mystery. I enjoyed the humor aspect of it, and the way that it still felt grounded in reality. This book is perfect for anyone tired of the same old mystery stories with the same old tropes but still wants to stick with the genre. It works well as a standalone or a sequel, both new and old readers can enjoy it, though I imagine if you start with this one you'll immediately pick up the first one. I'm looking forward to more from Benjamin Stevenson, but after that final twist, I'm not sure what to expect.
