Omaha Sherlockian Society

The society usually has a dinner meeting at a local restaurant with a private meeting room. For several years the society met at Jerico's, a nice restaurant reasonably central to the members. Their meeting room has been updated and is now quite suitable for the meeting, which usually takes place in October to celebrate the origin of the society.

This year the pandemic made it difficult to meet in October, November, or December of 2021 because of the unavailability a suitable meeting place. We decided to wait until January 2022, assuming we could easily find a place to meet. And we did – Jerico's, on January 15th. But member concerns about the increase in cases of the virus caused the meeting – which was this year to also celebrate Sherlock's birthday – to be cancelled.

During the meeting we will discuss at least the first story in The Sign of Seven edited by Martin Rosenstock (ISBN 9781785659034, E-ISBN 9781785659041, published by Titan Books). The first story is Death of a Mudlark by Stuart Douglas. We may also discuss the second story, “The Adventure of the Deadly Séance” by James Lovegrove, depending on how much time we spend discussing the first story. We will also decide, as a group, on how to proceed through the remaining stories.
