    Hello, I'm a sucker for mystery books that involves family, anything goes! Inheritance disputes, death of a relative, sibling rivalry, dysfunctional parent and child relationship, finding a missing relative, etc. Anything as long as it involves family

    Some books I enjoyed that fit the criteria:

    • The Galton Case by Ross MacDonald (Mom wants to find her son)
    • The Way Some People Die by Ross MacDonald (Mom wants to find her daughter)
    • The Inugami Curse by Seishi Yokomizo (Killing over inheritance)
    • The Devil's Flute Murders by Seishi Yokomizo (The killer is a product of incest between brother and sister)
    • Crooked House by Agatha Christie (Death of a patriarch/grandpa and finding his killer)
    • Ordeal by Innocence by Agatha Christie (Death of a stepmom and finding her actual killer)
    • Appointment with Death (Death of a tyrannical mother)

      I really enjoyed Everyone in My Family has Killed Someone by Benjamin Stevenson. It’s a murder mystery involving a very dysfunctional family.
