(A special note from Kathy Harig, owner of Mystery Loves Company bookstores).
On December 31, 2008 after much deliberation, Mystery Loves Company will consolidate its business and close its store in Baltimore at 1730 Fleet Street which we opened in 1991.
The Oxford store which has been extremely successful will continue to be open year round at 202 S.Morris Street in Oxford (410-226-0010) featuring mysteries, Chesapeake books and local authors.

We will continue to feature and showcase our talented local authors with signings in the Oxford store and at other venues such as schools, libraries, festivals, community centers and other venues.
Reading Groups - We will continue to support local reading groups with 20% their book purchases.
Relationships with Special Groups - Our special event relationship will continue with the three local Brandeis University library groups, the Mid-Atlantic chapter of Mystery Writers of America, and the chesapeake chapter of Sisters in Crime.
