Tea & A Book

Come to Brick Street and join us for breakfast, or maybe just a cup of coffee as we discuss The Beekeeper's Apprentice, by Laurie R. King. 

Long-retired, Sherlock Holmes has taken up beekeeping and is living a quiet-solitary life when he meets young Mary Russel.  Mary, an orphan from America now living with her aunt in Sussex, soon becomes Holmes' apprentice and quickly hones her talent for deduction, disguises and danger.  This book is a mixture of intrigue, suspense, with a sprinkle of humor as Mary helps her mentor solve a crime.
