Reviews
"A delightful introduction to the McMasters Conservatory . . . To better understand McMasters, consider it the Harvard of Homicide, the Stanford of Stabbing, or the Princeton of Poisoning. . . . Holmes' newest novel is a satirical masterpiece. His wry wit and sarcastic sense of humor are on full display. As a mystery writer, Holmes executes misdirection expertly, leading the reader in several directions at once. His stabbing commentary on academia is cut-throat. Holmes kills it in this entertaining tale. For readers looking for a fast and fun book that will slay your funny bone, check out Murder Your Employer . All puns intended." -- Portland Book Review, "A case study in the droll amusements of homicide, Rupert Holmes's send-up of higher education and even higher crimes and misdemeanors will keep you up at night--alternately turning pages and checking to make sure the front door is locked." --Gregory Maguire, author of Wicked "With dry humor and an eye for hidden clues, Rupert Holmes imagines a secret Hogwarts-like school that teaches the fine art of pulling off the perfect (and perfectly deserved) murder. An utterly creative and deliciously diabolical read." -- Alafair Burke, New York Times bestselling author of Find Me "A college with a degree in Homicide? Only Rupert Holmes could make murder laugh-out-loud funny. This book isn't clever--it's fiendishly clever. And the twists and tricks and endless surprises make me want to sign up for another semester!" -- R.L. Stine, author of Goosebumps and Fear Street, "Edgar winner Holmes frames this cheeky 1950s-set crime novel as a self-study guide for those who can't afford tuition to the McMasters Conservatory for the Applied Arts, a 'finishing school for finishing people off' . . . [the] farcical plotting, idiosyncratic characters, and witty, stylish prose combine for a fun, frothy read. Fans of humorous historical fiction will be well entertained." -- Publishers Weekly

Synopsis
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From the diabolical imagination of Edgar Award-winning novelist, playwright, and story-songwriter Rupert Holmes comes a devilish thriller with a killer concept: The McMasters Conservatory for the Applied Arts, a luxurious, clandestine college dedicated to the fine art of murder where earnest students study how best to "delete" their most deserving victim. Who hasn't wondered for a split second what the world would be like if a person who is the object of your affliction ceased to exist? But then you've probably never heard of The McMasters Conservatory, dedicated to the consummate execution of the homicidal arts. To gain admission, a student must have an ethical reason for erasing someone who deeply deserves a fate no worse (nor better) than death. The campus of this "Poison Ivy League" college--its location unknown to even those who study there--is where you might find yourself the practice target of a classmate...and where one's mandatory graduation thesis is getting away with the perfect murder of someone whose death will make the world a much better place to live. Prepare for an education you'll never forget. A delightful mix of witty wordplay, breathtaking twists and genuine intrigue, Murder Your Employer will gain you admission into a wholly original world, cocooned within the most entertaining book about well-intentioned would-be murderers you'll ever read. Rupert Holmes's much celebrated career ranges from chart-topping story songs with surprising twists--"Escape (The Pina Colada Song)"--to Tony Award-winning whodunit musicals-- The Mystery of Edwin Drood --Edgar Award-winning comedy-thrillers-- Accomplice --and the Nero Wolfe Best American Mystery Novel nominated Where the Truth Lies , made into an Atom Egoyan motion picture starring Colin Firth and Kevin Bacon. Called "an American treasure" ( Los Angeles Times ), "a true Renaissance man" by Newsweek , "a comic genius" ( Kirkus Reviews ) and simply "a genius" ( The Times , London), Rupert Holmes brings his wickedly clever storytelling talents to this outrageous and darkly comic mystery set in a secret, idyllic campus where students learn how to "do in others as you would have others do you in.", A New York Times bestseller! From Edgar Award-winning novelist, playwright, and story-songwriter Rupert Holmes comes a diabolical thriller with a killer concept: The McMasters Conservatory for the Applied Arts, "a fantasy academy laid out like a combination of Hogwarts, Downton Abbey, and a White Lotus -style resort" ( Los Angeles Times ) dedicated to the art of murder where students study how best to "delete" their most deserving victim. Who hasn't wondered for a split second what the world would be like if a person who is the object of your affliction ceased to exist? But then you've probably never heard of The McMasters Conservatory, dedicated to the consummate execution of the homicidal arts. To gain admission, a student must have an ethical reason for erasing someone who deeply deserves a fate no worse (nor better) than death.

Prepare for an education you'll never forget. A "fiendishly funny" ( Booklist ) mix of witty wordplay, breathtaking twists and genuine intrigue, Murder Your Employer will gain you admission into a wholly original world, cocooned within the most entertaining book about well-intentioned would-be murderers you'll ever read.
