Geocache Description:



“You must drop everything, Sherlock. Never mind your usual petty puzzles of the police-court. It's a vital international problem that you have to solve. Why did Cadogan West take the papers, where are the missing ones, how did he die, how came his body where it was found, how can the evil be set right? Find an answer to all these questions, and you will have done good service for your country."

So exclaimed Sherlock’s older brother Mycroft after the elder Holmes came to discuss some stolen plans to a state-of-the-art submarine. A Mr. Cadogan West was found near the railroad tracks outside the Aldegate station. His body had been placed on a train along the route and had then fallen off near the station. Mr. West had seven of ten plans on his person and was suspected of being a thief and a traitor. It turns out he was in fact a patriot who died in the service of his nation as he tried to recover the stolen plans. Sherlock recovered the 3 missing plans along with the true thieves. What wasn’t known when Mycroft visited Sherlock was WHERE the man died, HOW the man died, and WHO killed him.

This cache is part of a series where you are asked to discover the where, how and who of Mr. West’s demise. There are 6 suspects, 6 possible murder weapons and 6 potential rooms in the apartment where the act was committed. This cache has evidence in it that will help you eliminate some suspects, some weapons and some rooms.

There are two similar caches you will need to locate to help you eliminate all but the true suspect, true weapon and true room:
