One book with fifteen treasure hunts in North East England

Why pay for multiple treasure hunts when you get fifteen in one book? Word Hunt Adventures is one of a kind book using words hidden around picturesque towns, cities and villages. Using a numbered map for each location and cryptic clues, you find the words to then complete the crossword puzzle for that location. Locations include Whitby, York, Durham, Richmond, Staithes, Saltburn-by-the-Sea, Pateley Bridge, Ripon, Harrogate, Knaresborough, Barnard Castle, Middleham, Hawes, Pickering and Goathland. Once the crossword puzzles are complete, you can then unravel the Mystery motivational word and continue to solve the secret message at the back of the book.
