Ernest Cunningham is the series that established Benjamin Stevenson as a fresh voice in modern crime fiction. The books combine contemporary settings with the pleasures of a classic puzzle mystery, including clue-driven plotting, suspicious ensembles, and a narrator who is fully aware of the genre conventions he is inhabiting.
The publication-order approach works especially well here because part of the fun comes from getting to know Ernest’s voice and the series’ increasingly confident use of self-reference. Readers who like both traditional whodunits and playful experimentation will find this sequence especially rewarding.
