Secret Santa

“A touch of the supernatural, malefic colleagues and plenty of eccentricity.”—The Washington Post

“Shaffer writes with a keen eye for the tropes of the genre but also a sharply ironic sense of humour…provides chuckles and chills in equal measure.”—Financial Times

“Writing with a biting, dry wit, Shaffer blends old school, B-movie gore and sharp send-ups of office politics and the publishing industry. Fans of classic slasher novels will revel in this blood-soaked romp.”—Publishers Weekly

“[A] devilishly farcical ode to horror novels and publishing in general….Anyone who ventures into this snarky, dark novel will never look at a holiday gift exchange the same way again.”—Booklist

“A superbly crafted, impressively original, and inherently riveting read from cover to cover.”—Midwest Book Review

“Shaffer delivers chills and laughs — he is fundamentally a comedic writer — in a story that leads into Halloween and Christmas like a good Tim Burton film.”—The Gazette

“An offbeat nostalgia trip, a narrative steeped in 1980s pastiche and featuring a unique plot that keeps readers guessing what’s happening … Secret Santa is a wonderful read any time of the year, but it’s devilishly appropriate for Christmastime — or perhaps Christmas in July.”—Hollywood Soapbox
