Favorite Quote: And that, to me, embraces the very soul of the most important commandment you’ll find anywhere in your Principles of Successful Termination: ‘Do in others as you would have others do you in.’

Story Synopsis: When Cliff Iverson fails miserably at trying to murder his boss, he’s recruited by a clandestine agency to help him achieve his goals. Through rigorous - and unconventional training - Cliff is given the tools he needs to murder his employer. At McMasters, he meets others who are learning the tools of the trade to off bosses, spouses, blackmailers, and colleagues. However, when Cliff and the others are turned out into the world to enact their diabolical plans, who will succeed?

Why does this book beguile? I’d been hearing about this book for a while and my mom was very enthusiastic about it. Cheekily, I wanted to read it on a work trip, but timing didn’t work out. Regardless, I thoroughly enjoyed Murder Your Employer. It’s sassy, silly, and quite murderous!

Rating: 5/5
