Andrew Murray - Private Thread

A puzzling headline begins a front-page article found in the Times of London. Three men, all identical in identification, were found dead in the same room of the Chelsea Arms Hotel. Then the home of a valued friend burns to the ground, severely injuring him in the process. It is the beginning of "Horror On The Orient Express" a European campaign set in the winter between January and March of 1923. Over the course of the campaign, the investigators are trying to collect the various pieces of an ancient statue called the Sedefkar Simulacrum. Night falls early then, and each night is long and cold. The campaign is made up of 11 scenarios, taking place in seven nations, the United Kingdom, France, Switzerland, Italy, The Kingdom of Serbs Croats and Slovenes, Bulgaria, and Turkey. All are stops on the path of the Simplon-Orient Express.

Andrew Murray - Private Thread

Post by robertod »

Andrew Murray is aware of a case that has been worrying the British secret services in recent days.
Last week, the police approached two suspicious men of Turkish ethnicity. They were sticking around the Oriental Club, spying people going in and out. When followed and questioned by the police, the men reacted and were killed in a gunfight. The two men had no ID, but the agents overheard them talking Turkish or a somewhat similar language. They had the same appearance. Two monozygotic twins apparently.
One of the two man was carrying a notebook with handwritten notes in Turkish. When translated, the notes turned to be confidential Foreign Office information about British military affairs in the Middle East. No one has any idea how these two men could get this information. The Turkish government denies knowledge. Any investigation into the identity of the two men and other activities in London resulted in nothing. The Secret Service has instructed Andrew to keep an eye at the club and report any useful information on this matter.
