Summer 2022, Session II: The Fairy Queen's Flock




The second session of the summer is called "The Fairy Queen's Flock" This program will run from 9 AM to 4 PM from June 5 through 8. This is a four-day mystery, with Monday off. The location is still to be determined.

"The Fairy Queen's Flock" is the first mystery written by Oliver Van Soest. He is returning for his fourth summer as assistant, and we have all enjoyed his hilarious cartoon summaries of our mysteries each season. Oliver started as a detective in the program, so I am excited to be featuring his first mystery. The story draws on Oliver's recent studies in Irish mythology and literature.

Trouble lurks in the fairy realms when the Birds of Peace and Healing begin to lose their color. The mystery leads into the fairy mounds of Ireland and across a mythical sea to the Otherworld realms of Tir na NOg. Can the detectives save the Birds before their songs go silent?

Our project this week will feature Fey Creatures. Detectives will be summoning these creatures for help in their mystery.
