Literally the Best Reviews: The Boy at the Keyhole

The Boy at the Keyhole -- Stephen Giles

Hanover Square Press

304 Pages

The days’ activities are targeted for locals, who may have out-of-town company for the long Thanksgiving weekend, and other visitors who are in the area and looking for something different to do.

In the meantime, as I continue to do some research for that article, I thought I would revisit some of the memories that come with a couple of those other items.
