A mystery is waiting to be solved in
Chard
Today is a great day for solving mysteries and eating pies! So thought Bobby Law from the Eye-on-U Detective Agency in Chard. But he needs some help with this one! Someone has been stealing meat pies from shops and kitchens in Chard, causing pie-lovers like Bobby a real headache and an empty stomach. There are clues all over town, but he is too hungry to solve them - there's no way he can crack all those curious clues on an empty stomach! Who is the pie thief, and what crumbs of evidence are they leaving behind to incriminate them?
Bobby needs a squad of top investigators (YOU!) to join Eye-on-U Detectives and lend a hand with this case. Can you get out there, solve this mystery, and save the town's crumbling pie industry? Let's get started!
