Now dealing with a kooky cast of relative strangers (instead of strange relatives), Ernest is still a compelling detective/narrator and an endearing lead. Benjamin Stevenson's writing is fast, goofy, sarcastic and self-effacing in equal measure, expertly juggling a dozen tiny threads and obsessions. It's very funny, a great follow-up to one of my favourite books I read last year. I need to know if Ben has played Ace Attorney.

also as a media critic I knew exactly who the murderer was the second their occupation was revealed LMAO. love your work Ben!

A very good sequel. I love this writing style and it was fun to have something that builds but feels different. I will say having the reveal rely on a mystery identity again is maybe pushing it. I think it was fun but I hope it branches out more when the series continues.
