K.J. Whittle made a debut in 2025 with Seven Reasons to Murder Your Dinner Guests, a mystery novel that puts a group of guests around a table and gives each one a reason to kill. The title alone signals the book’s darkly humorous approach to the genre, and the story delivers on that promise with sharp dialogue and escalating suspicion.
The novel draws on the classic locked-room mystery tradition, where a limited setting and a small cast of characters keep the focus tight. As the evening unfolds, each guest’s secrets emerge, and the reader is left guessing who will act on their motive first. It is an entertaining debut for readers who like their mysteries with a wicked edge.
