A mystery is waiting to be solved in

Muswell Hill

Barry O'Reefe, an expert in tropical fish, has sadly been found floating in the large fish tank at a top-secret animal breeding laboratory located deep beneath Alexandra Palace. What seemed to be a tragic accident has turned sinister after the revelation that Barry was none other than the notorious animal rights activist known as Noah Zark! Barry has made many enemies far and wide with his determination to free the animals at zoos and labs across the UK. A closer examination of Barry's last logs shows he was bent on exposing the dodgy goings-on at the top-secret lab. DCI Lauren Order has 'herd' a tip-off about the culprit, believed to be one of the animal keepers, who has scattered a series of bizarre Clues around Muswell Hill in their escape. Can YOU - our TOP Detectives - track them down, round them up and reveal the guilty party?
