Synopsis

Benjamin Stevenson returns with a Christmas addition to his bestselling, “deviously good fun” (Nita Prose), Ernest Cunningham mysteries. Unwrap all the Christmas staples: presents, family, an impossible murder or two, and a deadly advent calendar of clues. If Knives Out and The Thursday Murder Club kissed under the mistletoe.My name’s Ernest Cunningham. I used to be a fan of reading Golden Age murder mysteries, until I found myself with a haphazard career getting stuck in the middle of real-life ones. I’d hoped, this Christmas, that any self-respecting murderer would kick their feet up and take it easy over the holidays. I was wrong.So here I am, backstage at the show of world-famous magician Rylan Blaze, whose benefactor has just been murdered. My suspects are all professional tricksters: masters of the art of misdirection. THE MAGICIAN THE ASSISTANT THE EXECUTIVE THE HYPNOTIST THE IDENTICAL TWIN THE COUNSELLOR  THE TECHMy clues are even more abstract: A suspect covered in blood, without a memory of how it got there. A murder committed without setting foot inside the room where it happens. And an advent calendar. Because, you know, it’s Christmas.If I can see through the illusions, I know I can solve it. After all, a good murder is just like a magic trick, isn’t it?

The epitome of fun, Everyone This Christmas Has a Secret mixed a quick-witted whodunnit with a cozy mystery feel. Showcasing the snarky, likeable protagonist of Ernest Cunningham yet again in this third in a series, I was quickly pulled into the plot through fast pacing and irresistible surprises. T......more

Goodreads review by Holly on October 29, 2024

Ernest Cunningham is back with another puzzle to solve! This is a shorter book and features a magician (tricky tricks), an advent calendar and some countdown to Christmas mishaps that suggested hints to the mystery. I didn't solve it, but had fun following how Ernest put the clues together. It is h......more

HAPPY PUBLICATION DAY! Superbly clever Christmas mystery! “In keeping with an accidental theme—my first case involved a full stop, my second a comma—this may well be the first mystery ever solved by Comic Sans.” Your ever intrusive narrator, Ernest Cunningham, is on his third case when his ex-wife’s bo......more
