The show covered notorious and unsolved crimes and was “known for its in-depth analysis and exclusive access to those closest to the crime”. In the book, the current season covers the murder of Luke Ryder, which has been left unsolved for two decades, and the new season premiered on the 20th anniversary of the crime. The docuseries shows a group of experts, which includes detectives, retired investigators, a lawyer, and a psychologist (who were apparently invited to the show because they were somehow involved with the case as it turned out), unboxing what has already been investigated on in the past, and discovering there were still a lot of bases that weren’t covered.Each new piece of information they discovered led to a lot more possibilities of what really happened that night of the murder, and each new evidence made me think twice about who the killer really was. There were loads of information being exchanged by the experts which was quite overwhelming, but it made the story feel genuine, nonetheless.It was only at around 80% of the book that I had two suspects who I thought had a high probability of being the real murderer (out of the many people the experts have investigated, interviewed, and researched) – and I’m so proud to say that one of my hunches was right, and was very unexpected.I really enjoyed the book’s screenplay format, which also included some actual pieces the experts used for the investigation like newspaper clippings, maps, handwritten notes, etc. After each broadcast, there was also an online forum where viewers commented, reacted, and discussed what they had watched and voiced their suspicions. There were also some voicemail transcripts and emails shown, as well as Guy’s sister’s text messages to each other as the investigation unraveled. These pieces of media and the screenplay format had me a lot more engaged with the story and made me feel like I was really watching a docuseries.The story was overall fast-paced, compelling, and gripping. The format kept me engaged and thoroughly invested and the book itself was difficult to put down. Some of the characters the experts investigated surprised me with how sick and creepy they are, and yet some are really not who they seem they are. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars A compulsive read *by I***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2024* This reminded me of Janice Hallett in the format. While Hallett favors an epistolary format, "The Murder in the Family" is formatted like a play/transcription of a true crime reality show. Hunter adds realism by including a TV reviewers weekly reaction article and screenshots of a forum discussing the Infamous series.This book is very compulsive. Once you get into the story and comfortable with who the six experts are -- I had to flip back to their descriptions several times in the e-book - the revelations and pacing just gets you going.I stayed up to read this book and was very lucky it was a long weekend, because I cannot recover from all-nighters that quickly anymore! There the expected "cliffhangers" and while I didn't get EVERYTHING correct in my deductions, I got some right.Some of the 6 experts become distinctive in their personalities though not really in HOW they speak, if that makes sense. There are obvious "alphas" who take charge/ fight over leading but everybody speaks the same way. Some experts fade a little in the background, but their personalities could be overwhelmed by the more domineering ones.There are some uncomfortable topics that come up and resolutions left unclear, which I suppose is a deliberate choice to reflect real life. Not everything is resolved to the happiness of audiences.The book touches briefly on the ethics of true crime shows and dredging up traumatic experiences for the sake of capitalism and entertainment. As well, what is really "real" in reality shows?I would definitely recommend this book to others who like thrillers, so long as they don't have negative connotations with reading plays from school! ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars Needs to be proofread *by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2023* While I did return the fist copy because it was a "NOT FOR SALE" copy, I did re buy it and received a regular copy of the book. However, my sister (it was a gift) has been highlighting all the misinformation (hopefully it won't hinder her from solving the crime) and grammatical errors. It may not bother you, but it definitely bothers her and would drive me crazy. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/526941217-murder-in-the-family-a-captivating-murder-mystery-with-mesmerizing](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/526941217-murder-in-the-family-a-captivating-murder-mystery-with-mesmerizing) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-07-19*
