Seahouses
For years, the smokehouses of Seahouses have produced the finest kippers for locals and visitors alike. But it was the annual competition for the Golden Kipper that truly brought the town to life. This much sought-after prize was awarded to the maker of the tastiest kipper. But a few years ago, the trophy mysteriously disappeared without a trace. Rumour has it that the grumpy old trawler boat skipper, Mack Rhell, sick of the smell of kippers, confessed on his deathbed to stealing and burying the Golden Kipper on a nearby island. But with his forgetful nature, he left behind a map with a series of clues hidden under his bed. Now, it's up to YOU, the top adventurers of the Intrepid Explorers Society (IES), to find the missing treasure!
