In the charming town of Alloa, there's a mystery waiting to be solved. It's said that as a child, Mary Queen of Scots was given a beautiful necklace by a local earl. But instead of becoming a family heirloom, the young queen secretly stashed it away, pretending to have lost it. Now, the Intrepid Explorers Society (IES) has discovered a tatty old map and a series of clues that may lead to the missing necklace. Are you ready to join the adventure and uncover the truth?
