Episode: MURDER YOUR EMPLOYER by Rupert Holmes, read by Neil Patrick Harris, Simon Vance
Description: Simon Vance and Neil Patrick Harris combine their narrative talents to present an unusual mystery set in a 1950s school instructing students how to “morally” murder—and get away with it. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Michele Cobb discuss Rupert Holmes’s fun and over-the-top mystery audiobook. Listeners meet three students at this unusual school. In addition to learning methods to inventively delete (murder) deserving victims, cleverly rendered quotes from the school’s handbook offer further diabolical fun. The action and spirited renderings amp up as each student must successfully delete their intended victim—or be eliminated by the school.
