Christmas Inc.: A Christmas Mystery (Paperback)

$14.99

Author J. Spencer Osborne invites readers into Tinkerhaus—a global toy powerhouse at the peak of its influence—during a time of transition after its legendary founder, Clarence Greenway, passes away. Arthur, the steadfast lieutenant everyone assumes will lead; Granville, the ambitious youngest son with questionable motives; and Hollis Sawyer, the rising star left to sort it all out, find themselves in a game of high-stakes boardroom chess. Add in a mysterious woman in black and an unseen power pulling the strings, and the story moves through corporate intrigue, back-of-house wonder, and carefully guarded secrets.

Along the way, the familiar spirit of the season appears in surprising, sometimes dazzling ways—taking you to unexpected places, turning ordinary scenes into moments of magic, and quietly reshaping what the characters, and the reader, believe about Christmas. For true Christmas obsessives, it’s brimming with hidden references, quotes, homages, and clues—clever nods that tie everything back to the holiday’s cultural legacy. Spotting the secrets is a gift—discovering what they mean will change how you see Christmas forever.

The magic of Christmas emerges in unexpected corners, asking you to look twice at what you thought you knew and revealing an entirely new way of seeing the holiday itself.

The book’s structure delivers page-turning momentum without ever breaking the spell, preserving the secret behind Christmas while showcasing world-building that begs for spin-offs and screen adaptations. Osborne’s work is emotionally grounded, character-forward, and fun, with an eye for plot mechanics that click into place at just the right moment.
