Happy Birthday, TJ Binyon! Celebrating another year of your brilliant literary sleuthing—your knack for unraveling mysteries both scholarly and fictional remains unmatched. From the gripping twists in "Swan Song" to the clever intrigue woven through "Greek Gifts," you've kept readers delightfully puzzled and thoroughly entertained.

Your dual life as a respected professor by day and masterful crime writer by night continues to inspire us all. May this birthday bring you fewer red herrings, more plot twists, and plenty of cake (without any suspicious ingredients). Here's hoping your next chapter is filled with laughter, success—and absolutely no cliffhangers!
