Everyone This Christmas Has a Secret by Benjamin Stevenson

Murder, magic, misdirection, and Christmas collide in this clever and delightfully festive mystery from bestselling author Benjamin Stevenson.

Ernest Cunningham was hoping for a quiet Christmas. After finding himself caught in the middle of more than his fair share of real-life murder mysteries, surely even a killer would take the holidays off.

He was wrong.

Ernest finds himself backstage at a performance by world-famous magician Rylan Blaze, whose benefactor has just been murdered. The suspects are all professional tricksters—people who make their living through illusion, deception, and misdirection.

There's a magician. An assistant. An executive. A hypnotist. An identical twin. A counsellor. And a tech.

Then there are the clues: a suspect covered in blood with no memory of how it happened, an impossible locked-room murder, and a mysterious advent calendar.

To catch the killer, Ernest will have to see through the illusions and uncover which secrets are real—and which are simply another trick.

Funny, clever, and packed with twists, Everyone This Christmas Has a Secret is a perfect holiday mystery for readers who love cozy crime, locked-room mysteries, witty amateur sleuths, and classic whodunits.
