3.30.2025 - The Murder Show

The Murder Show by Matt   Goldman 

Many thanks to NetGalley, Tor Books and Macmillan Audio for gifting me an audio ARC of the latest mystery by Matt Goldman, narrated by Dan Bittner.  All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 4 stars!

Ethan is a show runner for The Murder Show, but when a writer's strike shuts down work, he returns to his family home in Minnesota to try and come up with an idea for his next season.  His high school friend and backyard neighbor, Ro, is now a police officer.  The two decide to try and investigate what happened to another high school friend, Ricky, who died in a hit-and-run accident.  But they may be in for more than they bargained for.

This book felt realistic, mainly due to the fact that Matt Goldman is a screenwriter himself.  Ethan and Ro thought the investigation would be a good subject for the next season of Ethan's show, plus it would bring them closure on what really happened to their friend.  I liked the characters and their relationships, and enjoyed following along on the investigation.  The narrator was great with all the voices, and added to the enjoyment of the story.
