Ive been in this store many times, and each time, Ive not only found the book I want, but Ive met authors, been entranced by new authors, and had the opportunity to get to know the owners, Augie & Tracy. Theyre gems, and so is their store! Ive met some fantastic authors - not only local authors but famous authors whom Ive idolized...This place is a must-see spot if you (a) read; (b) read mysteries; (c) love history; and (d) want to support a fantastic local independent bookstore. A wonderful friend introduced me to this store, and Im beyond thrilled with my experiences here. You need to come here. Youll love it.

Just popped in on a random Sunday with my mom. We just took a stroll around the store which has great decor and ambiance. The owner or whoever was working was very helpful. He suggested novels and also mentiond the various groups that meet in the bookstore. We grabbed a bundle for 5 bucks and enjoyed the rest of our day. Im not local but if I was Id come to this book store much more and probably would even join a club or two.

This is a great little bookstore specializing in history and mystery (hence the name). Augie, the owner, is very helpful in finding the right book and is interesting to talk to about those and other subjects. In addition to the books themselves, there are signings by authors and various other events of interest to people who read and think. Sign up for the mailing list to keep up!
