A mystery is waiting to be solved in

Dunbar

There's been a brew-ha-ha in the town of Dunbar - the beloved owner of the local brewery, Ivy Fourstars, has gone missing! Rumour has it she was last seen floating in one of the vats, causing quite a stir among visitors and locals alike. But this isn't your average case of drowning sorrows - evidence suggests that Ivy met a bitter end before she entered the foamy drink. Was it an unfortunate accident or the work of a jealous rival? Chief Inspector Justin Case is on the case, but he needs your help to put the culprit behind bars - and not the ones that sell pints! Are YOU up for the challenge?
