INDIANAPOLIS — Many people have spent quarantine solving murder mysteries on the couch; now they can put their skills to the test at the (Covid-19 Compliant) Death in the Library murder mystery theater, hosted by the Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site. Groups of eight will be immersed in scandal as author JR Hartley, visiting Indianapolis for a book tour and signing, is suddenly “offed” before the signing begins.
