The letter itself was directed to "Chief Inspector Takeshi Sato". This had made the older man's stomach turn sour in mere seconds, especially when, upon opening it, his fears were confirmed.
The Organ-Snatcher was back.
"To Chief Inspector Takeshi Sato,
I know in our last correspondence, I swore we would never cross swords again, but I find myself in a situation just too delicious to pass up. With our seventh anniversary upon us, I felt that you needed to stretch your legs, so to speak, and have a chance to catch the one man that always eluded you.
Me.
Now sorry to say, I'll only be in town for the next few days. I have a specific little bar in mind where we could finally meet, face to face. The steps to finding out which one it is and when this will be are all up to you. I left you everything you need to know. Should you get so far, just be sure to ask for copy held in reserve for the past two months for a Mr. Sloan, in honor of your partners death.
Ciao,
S.S."
Authors Note: This is a special gift for the Coffin Hoppers who think themselves to be good at solving puzzles. All the clues are before you, just leave you answers, for those who dare to try, in the comments below. If a correct answer isn't provided in a day then the Carver must strike again, and Sato may never have a chance to close this last case.
Ok there is 3 hours I will never get back. I give up.... LOL
ReplyDeleteI am terrible at puzzles, and worse at them when sipping a Magic Hat Hex beer. I am sipping, not solving. This is a really fun idea, though, and I'd love to know more about this story - is it part of a book?

Yes, it's part of a book series that I'm writing. The first book is being sent to publishers in search of a place to be made available to the masses. I have excerpts of the series all over the site.
