When: Sunday 31 December 2023
Where: National Justice Museum

It's the electric eighties and we're getting ready to celebrate the New Year at the old Shire Hall as it shuts its doors for the final countdown. But is it game over for the guest of honour? Drinks are flowing, and sweet dreams are being made but something suspicious is going on...Don't stop believing, we need you to crack the case. The year is 1987 and you are invited to celebrate the closure of the Shire Hall before the courts move to their new home by the canal. The last Judge to preside over a trial at the Shire Hall vanished a few months ago after completing the case. Has another one bit the dust?
