New England Welcomes Spring!

It's almost Springtime in New England and there's energy and a sense of renewal in the air. My favorite time of the year, when new possibilities welcome those of us who have hibernated during the long winter season.

But how many can claim they sheltered the world’s greatest maestro of the murder mystery?
