Shaftesbury - Heart of Blackmore Vale

The Missing Bank Manager - A Detective Mystery Adventure in Shaftesbury

A few weeks ago, the small town of Shaftesbury was thrown into chaos when the local bank manager, Mr Bing, retired and was replaced by the unpleasant and arrogant Mr Ascutty. His bullying tactics quickly alienated the town's businesses and bank staff, leaving very few who were sad to see him go. But when Mr Ascutty was found slumped in the bank vault with banknotes stuffed in his mouth, the town was suddenly filled with suspects and potential motives. Now, it's up to YOU to follow the trail of evidence and uncover the truth!
