About Us

Founded in 1991, Mystery Loves Company remains the only stores specializing in new and gently used mysteries in the Baltimore-Washington area. "The tea pot is always on" at our two locations, Mystery Loves Company - Fells Point and Mystery Loves Company - Oxford.

We welcome the well-read mystery reader, as well as those who are just getting started with helpful recommendations for new authors and titles. We host frequent author signings and sponsor special mystery events. We publish a monthly email newsletter of events, recommendations and new mystery titles. We do mail order and special orders of any mystery title. We help you create mystery gift baskets with books, and related items, mugs and other goodies. All credit cards, Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express are accepted.

If you can't visit our two stores, order online from the MLC store on the web site, email us or call us 800-538-0042.
