The Mysterious Disappearance of Dew Plecate

An anonymous letter has been sent to the local newspaper, The Cairngorm Chronicle, accusing famous visiting crime writer, Dew Plecate, of plagiarism. And now, local police have confirmed that Dew's lifeless body has been found in suspicious circumstances! Who could have done such a thing?

Self-Guided Detective Mystery Through Grantown-on-Spey

Join the investigation and explore the charming town of Grantown-on-Spey with your family and friends on this self-guided detective mystery themed Treasure Trail. As you follow the Trail route, solve sneaky clues set on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments to eliminate the suspects and discover the truth behind Dew's death.

The Trail starts outside the Grantown Museum and takes you through some of Grantown's most picturesque locations, including the High Street and Speyside House. Keep your eyes peeled for any clues that may lead you to the culprit!

Chief Inspector Lou Tennant suspects a copycat hitman (or woman!) is behind this, following a similar case in Auchentumshie concerning a missing detective novelist. The Chief has now requested the public's assistance to help with their investigation and needs some top detectives to scour the area for evidence. Are you up to the task?
