#NotAHappyFamily #ShariLapena #BookSpinBingo

In this family, everyone is keeping secrets--especially the dead. Brecken Hill in upstate New York is an expensive place to live. You have to be rich to have a house there. And they don't come much richer than Fred and Sheila Merton. But even all their money can't protect them when a killer comes to call. The Mertons are brutally murdered the night after an Easter Dinner with their three adult kids.

EadieB Who, of course, are devastated.
Or are they? They each stand to inherit millions. They were never a happy family, thanks to their capricious father and neglectful mother, but perhaps one of them is more disturbed than anyone knew. Did one of them snap after that dreadful evening? Or was it someone else that night who crept in with the worst of intentions?

EadieB It must be. After all, if one of your siblings was a psychopath, you'd know. Wouldn't you?
This book is a major family drama. They are all lying and could have killed their parents. Your job is narrowing it down to find out who did it. There are chapters with POV's from each character and I kept changing my mind. They are all guilty as far as I was concerned but in the end it is a surprise who did it!

Andrew65 She us usually writes a good mystery, pleased to hear she‘s keeping a good standard. Excellent review. 1y
EadieB @Andrew65 Yes I love her books. She's great! 1y
Andrew65 @EadieB Always equate her for some reason with Alice Feeney, possibly because I discovered them around the same time. If you‘ve not read Daisy Darker by her I strongly recommend it, because I know you don‘t have enough books to read. 🤣 1y
TheAromaofBooks Yay!!! 1y
EadieB @Andrew65 You‘re funny! But I did put it on hold to read! 1y

The newest Lapena is already MUCH more satisfying than the newest Feeney was, and I‘m not even halfway through. (Honestly, it was more satisfying within the first five pages. 😬) I‘m pretty excited that it‘s my day off and I can just sit and read with no interruptions. 😍 #notahappyfamily #sharilapena
