A trail of clues awaits in
Girvan
Local entrepreneur Iona Fortune was always wary about putting all of her earnings away into banks and investments-she just didn't trust them! So, Iona decided the best thing for her to do was to secrete her substantial savings by burying them on an island located just off the coast of Girvan. Unfortunately, Iona has just passed away unexpectedly, leaving the whereabouts of her vast fortune unknown.
As local cleaner Dusty Kornas was clearing out possessions from her house, he chanced upon a map with a series of clues scribbled on the reverse… Could this be Iona's aide-memoire to where she stashed her cash? But with Dusty too busy cleaning other people's houses, he's asked for some top adventurers to try and make some sort of sense of these findings. Are YOU up for this challenge, Explorers?
