Eye-catching title, eh? Murder mystery with humor and lots of family drama. Dark comedy.
The gimmick is that the narrator is sort of an expert on the rules of conventional mystery writing and he uses his “knowledge” to solve several connected mysteries from his family's infamous history along with a “locked room” (more like an isolated resort) murder in their present.
It's entertaining and well structured. Some things are a tad implausible but nothing to spoil the overall experience.
This is one of those fun mysteries in which you're aware that everyone is capable of the crime, but never quite sure who did it. Unfortunately it‘s just a bit too long for the content and starts to feel like it's dragging around the halfway point.
It reads as though it could be easily adapted into a miniseries, which might be a better medium for this story to be through.

Fui enganado pelas reviravoltas! Na verdade nem procurei muito descobrir os mistérios e segredos, só fui me deixando levar pelo narrador que conversa com o leitor e vai soltando as coisas aos poucos antes que elas aconteçam. Normalmente não gosto muito dess tipo de escrita, mas aqui não me importei muito, até porque não conseguiria ficar decorando ou procurando o que poderia ser uma pequena pista antes do tempo, então apenas curti a história. Me perdi em alguns momentos (normal kkk) mas gostei muito de como tudo acabou - sem surpresas e sem deus ex machina para o leitor. Como o próprio narrador disse no começo, foi honesto o tempo todo, na medida do possível!
i really enjoyed the writing in this but for some reason it didn't keep me engaged.
