- **Event Description**: This fall, downtown Dover has a mystery to solve. On the first Thursday of each month from September through December, participating shops will stay open from 5–8 p.m. for Dover After Dark. Pick up a Detective Log at any participating business, then make your way around downtown searching for the characters hiding inside each shop. Find their picture, mark them safe from suspicion, and keep narrowing down the suspects until you uncover the culprit. You don’t have to visit every stop each month, but the more clues you collect, the faster you’ll crack the case! The same mystery continues all four months, and in December, turn in your completed log for a chance to win prizes and gift cards from local businesses.
