A mystery is waiting to be solved in

Romsey

The Abbot, a well-known local historian, had called a press briefing to announce a find, that in his words "would shock the world"! Sadly, before the briefing and highly anticipated reveal, smoke was seen billowing from his study. On investigation, the poor Abbot was found collapsed on the floor, with a whole stack of papers ablaze in the fireplace. Now, Chief Inspector Ima Stumped has only one question - who has benefitted from the Abbot's silence? She needs help from TOP Investigators to comb through the evidence, solve the Clues and figure out 'whodunnit'. Will YOU take on this critical case and unearth the truth?

The Curious Case of the Missing Manuscript

Step into the world of mystery and intrigue as you embark on this thrilling self-guided detective adventure through the charming town of Romsey. Starting at the historic Abbey, you'll follow a circular route through the picturesque streets and gardens, uncovering sneaky clues and solving puzzles to unravel the curious case of the missing manuscript.

As you journey through Romsey, keep your eyes peeled for hidden clues on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments. The Abbot's secrets are waiting to be discovered, and only the most daring investigators will be able to piece them together.

Do YOU have what it takes to solve the mystery and uncover the slippery secrets silenced by smoke?
