Default lookup a cell on another woksheet by using the tab name

I have 95 worksheets. Each one has been named.

I have a list of these same names on my summary sheet.

I want to lookup a cell on the worksheet that matches my summary cell details.

Thus my summary list has Paul Peter John Adam

I have worksheets for Paul Peter john Adam

I want my summary sheet cell d3 to show the value of cell r88 on worksheet
Adam under the Adam column of my summary sheet

If adam is in A4, you could use:

=indirect("'" & a4 & "'!r88")
