Join Sherlock in a Search for Clues in Cape May

CAPE MAY — There’s still time to detect in the Search for Clues Tour Nov. 8 in Cape May, and join Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s master sleuth, Sherlock Holmes, with his loyal friend Dr. John Watson.

Holmes accepts an invitation to aid a United States senator in his quest to locate secret documents that, if found by the wrong people, would have disastrous results for many high ranking government officials.
