Crack the Code: Detective Trail
Embark on an adventure trail through the cobbled streets of Newark becoming a crime detective for the day to crack the mystery code!

Crack the Code: Detective Trail

Barry the Bookworm has been kidnapped, and the Newark Book Festival team have been desperately trying to find him in time for the Castle Family Day on Sunday 14th July.

We need your help to become a detective for the day, follow the trail of clues left with various businesses and venues across Newark and let us know where you think he is. It’s a top-secret detective trail, so gather your most trusted friends and ensure no businesses let slip to each other. We don’t want this news to reach the Bramley Newspaper!

Don’t forget to bring your magnifying glass and notebook.

  1. Read the letter we’ve left for you to get started
  2. Get prepared by downloading and printing the clue sheet, or use the digital form to add in your answers as you go along
  3. Choose your starting location
  4. Follow the trail around Newark, doing from clue to clue, until you have gathered them all
  5. Submit your answer by email

Correctly discover where Barry the Bookworm has been kept prisoner and we’ll add you to the prize draw. All participants will be emailed a certificate of completion.
