The Mysterious Disappearance of Jerry Atric

Multi-mega billionaire hotel owner, Jerry Atric, 76, has vanished without a trace from his luxurious penthouse suite at Hotel de Posh in Oban. The town is buzzing with rumours of foul play, with many speculating that it may be connected to Atric's rumoured planned takeover bid for another major hotel chain. It's up to YOU to follow the Trail, crack the Clues, eliminate innocent suspects, and discover the truth behind Atric's disappearance!

Investigation Through Oban's Esplanade & Square

Embark on an exciting self-guided detective mystery themed Treasure Trail through the picturesque town of Oban. Starting at the railway station near the main pier, your adventure will take you along the seafront to North Pier and then along the esplanade to the war memorial. From there, you'll journey through Corran Halls, the town's distillery, and Argyll Square, before ending with magnificent views of Oban from Pulpit Hill.

As you follow the Trail route, keep your eyes peeled for sneaky clues hidden on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments. Can YOU solve the riddles and eliminate the suspects to uncover the truth?

DCI Evan Acklew needs YOUR detective skills to crack this case! Are YOU up for the challenge?
