:TITLE
The Case of the Dead Letter Murders by Mycroft RBBS

:CASE
Early this morning you were awaken by a pounding at the door.
Mrs Hudson had been sorry that should could not stop the gentleman
from comming up to your rooms and rousing you so early.
As you let Mr. Antoine Gaubert into your rooms you were joined by
a sleepy eyed Dr. Watson. As you drank your morning tea, Mr.
Gaubert had shown you the following note:
AVYWEORTUQSAGKRLOEAZSCEENENILTYWECANTICKEETMDFBTMSOIODINIRAE
REFRYOUTRANYANOVIUMORPOPPDAPORLITECIAUNESSTHEBANDIDIOITHNARG
TOMMIEOUTHROUGPARRISITESFROMIN
Watson had been a little confused as to why the gentleman was
making such a fuss over a garbled note. You recounted to him
that the identical note had been found on the bodies of 8 other
gentlemen who had been found murdered in the last 3 weeks.
Alas you had decided to take the case and assured Mr. Gaubert that
you would do all in your power to keep him alive. But that was
early and now you sit in front of the fire without a clue or a
name to start with other than the little note.
In order to save Mr. Gaubert, you must find out:
a) Who is the serial murderer
b) What is the motive
c) What does the message say
The game is afoot!
