Murder Your Employer

FROM EDGAR-WINNING NOVELIST AND PLAYWRIGHT RUPERT HOLMES COMES A THRILLER WITH A KILLER CONCEPT: THE McMASTERS CONSERVATORY FOR THE APPLIED ARTS-A LUXURIOUS, CLANDESTINE COLLEGE DEDICATED TO THE FINE ART OF MURDER.

Prepare yourself 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.

Who hasn’t wondered what the world would be like if a person who is the object of your affliction ceased to exist? At the McMasters Conservatory, future “deletists” (never murderers) learn the consummate execution of the homicidal arts. To this sumptuous campus come three memorable classmates: self-effacing Cliff Iverson, troubled Gemma Lindley, and Hollywood diva Doria Maye—all of whom have suffered menacing employers who richly deserve a deadly dénoument. Under the tutelage of Dean Harbinger Harrow and the fascinating faculty of McMasters’ halls of poison ivy, they hone their craft, each hoping to finesse a perfectly masterful murder.

Called “an American treasure” (Los Angeles Times), “a true Renaissance man” (Newsweek), and “a genius” (London Times), Rupert Holmes brings his wickedly clever storytelling talents to this outrageous and darkly comic mystery set in a secret, idyllic world where students of all ages learn how to “do in others as you would have others do you in.”
