If you’re in Edinburgh, there’s a copy of The Changeling by Robin Jenkins (donated by Canongate) plus a pair of tickets to the Bass Notes concert on Saturday 9th May (donated by the Scottish Chamber Orchestra) waiting for you… if you can find them!
Clue 1:
An Edinburgh cellist named Su-a,
Likes stories performed for the viewer,
The street is not low,
The place Netherbow,
If you’ve worked it out, then pursue her!
Got it? Well, get over there quickly! This place is open Mondays to Saturdays 10 ’til 6. It’s not open Sunday. Once you’re there you’ll need to solve the next clue to find a green envelope, then take it to the desk and claim your prize.
Clue 2:
I’m hiding deep and low,
in amongst witches and wizards,
in the cosy red corner.
Good luck and happy treasure hunting!
And, if you’re our winner, please let us know! Go to www.BookCrossing.com, enter the BCID number you’ll find on the inside front cover of the book, and leave us a message so that we know the book and tickets are safe with you.
Update, 4th May: the treasure has been found!













Ooh! I think I might just know where that is. Race you!
I think I know too, but can’t get into town today! Boo… Good luck everyone else!
Me too, but will I get up in time???
