Not a Happy Family by Shari Lapena
3.0

The night after having Easter dinner with their three grown children, a wealthy couple is murdered. Of course, the Merton children are devastated. Or are they? They stand to inherit millions and Daddy dearest wasn't exactly the nicest guy. Was it a random act of violence or was the perpetrator someone much closer to home? But if one of your siblings was a murderer, you would know ... wouldn't you? Despite its less than original premise, Lapena's latest domestic thriller is a fast-paced fun thriller to read that will keep you guessing whodunit.
