TO: Captain Simpson, D Company, Alton Haypun Home Guard
 

FROM: Captain Forsythe, Regional Command, Southern Sector
 

DATE: 4th September, 1940

 

Dear Captain Simpson,

 

Following a recent interception of coded transmissions from a suspected German operative, it’s believed a German agent, codenamed Blackbird, has embedded himself within the Alton Haypun Home Guard. He has acquired a top-secret document detailing the confirmed location and date of the planned German invasion of Britain (Operation Seelöwe) and is preparing to smuggle it out via the coast at Bramble’s Cove.

 

Your only clue to move forward comes from a decoded message found on the floor of your Home Guard post in Alton Haypun, believed to have been dropped by Blackbird himself. Intelligence believes he has hidden the document inside an innocuous-looking Home Guard training manual, stashed somewhere in the village.

 

Your company does not have long before the agent vanishes for good. The roads out of the village have been secured and we believe Blackbird is still within Alton Haypun. Use your first clue to track his next steps.

 

Trust only what you can prove. The spy is clever, and time is not your friend.

 

Good luck!

 

Captain Forsythe.
