Secrets of Wayfarers Inn Book 20: There’s No Place Like Holmes

There’s No Place Like Holmes is the 20th book in the Secrets of Wayfarers Inn cozy mystery series.

Sherlock Holmes has come to Marietta…or at least, his fan club. Tess Wallace and her friends are excited to welcome Tess’s uncle Harold to the inn with his Sherlock Society, and they expect a weekend of deerstalker hats, violin music, and rousing debate regarding the Sherlock Holmes mysteries. But when a new donation to the Underground Railroad Museum goes missing en route to the inn, Tess, LuAnn, and Janice find themselves with a whole club-full of amateur detectives ready to help them solve the case. As the Inn Crowd and their guests investigate, it soon becomes apparent that all the clues they gather seem to be from one of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s stories! How is it possible that this classic book, written decades ago, is leading them on a hunt all around Marietta today?

An unexpected snowstorm foils some of Tess’s plans for a miniature family reunion; and she realizes that Uncle Harold may not be as sharp as he once had been. He has dedicated his life to pursuits she can’t quite understand…but at the heart of it all, are they more alike than different?
