Put your sleuthing hat on… A librarian has been found dead!
Whodunnit? The farmer? The student? The innocent old lady? The influencer? The financial advisor? The rock star?
Follow the clues and find out who killed… The Body in the (Mobile) Library!
Story written by Martin Day and Sarah Deacon
Who Can Take Part?
The competition is open to all B&NES Libraries members!
How Do I Take Part?
You need to gather all the evidence: the Case File and 6 Suspect Evidence Packs. Hidden within them are the clues you need to work out who committed murder! (And who didn’t.)
Online: Visit our ‘NE Somerset Police’ page to get started!
Physical files: Each of our Libraries holds the Case File and 2 Suspect Evidence Packs – so you can collect them all by visiting each of our Libraries, or get them all in one go from the Mobile Library.
Update: You can now collect the case file and all suspects from Bath Central Library.
