In the seaside town of Celestún, where poinsettias bloom like secrets and the sea keeps its own kind of memory, Mercedes Magia is just trying to survive the holidays. Between her boisterous family, preparing for Posada y Festival Navideño, and one mischievous mut named Manchito, Mercedes has her hands full baking buñuelos—not stirring up trouble.
But when red poinsettias start vanishing from the town’s beloved Christmas tree and a strange child begins leaving flowers by the sea wall, Mercedes senses something deeper is unfolding. As ghosts of the past rise and long-buried secrets surface, Mercedes must untangle the truth before the festival ends. Because in Celestún, some stories won’t stay buried—and some hearts won’t rest until they’re remembered.
With a touch of mystery, a dash of family drama, and plenty of powdered sugar, Buñuelos & Bah Humbugs is a heartwarming holiday whodunnit perfect for fans of cozy Christmas tales woven with folklore, family, and a whisper of intrigue.
