We discuss Rian Johnson's second outing with Benoit Blanc, the 2022 mystery extravaganza 'Glass Onion'. A group of successful friends are invited to a mystery weekend on the private Greek island of their mutual benefactor Miles Bron. Upon arrival, Blanc discovers his invitation to the weekend was not from Bron himself, and so the mystery weekend begins to unravel. Soon thereafter, Blanc's Detective's Curse seems to strike again as one of the participants is murdered. From scripted puzzle to pure chaos, Glass Onion blows the genre wide in spectacular fashion. We also preview our full-length discussion with Aussie author Benjamin Stevenson on his latest novel, 'Everyone in my Family has Killed Someone'. Thank you to Penguin Australia for providing copies of 'Everyone in my Family has Killed Someone'.
