Entry One



So it seems some high class madam needs some muscle.  Cousin Ted and myself have been "hired" to help out one Mavis Guildman who owns a particularly fine gentleman's establishment in Fulham.  Being in between regular jobs it seemed like a good idea to say the least and we took a horse and carriage to 65 Fairholme Road, Hammersmith, London, W14 9JY.  The door was opened by a large gentleman called Victor who was the servant of a Dr Percy Verne who had also been hired to assist Ms Guildman.

It seems that a close personal friend and colleague, Sir Peter Ellen, a solicitor of some repute had been kidnapped and was being held against his will.  A meeting had been arranged with the kidnappers at Kings Cross Station for later that day so we decided to go there early.  Due to the size of our party we thought that it might be an idea to take the underground from Barons Court.

It appears that this was a bad decision as soon after we left Barons Court there was a sudden outbreak of animates.  With Victor's assistance, Ted and I were able to put them down again.  We chose some vantage points at Kings Cross and waited for the kidnappers.  They turned up and Mavis went berserk, shooting Sir Peter!  We were able to rescue Peter and make our way back to the club but Mavis is more than she seems - need to keep an eye on that one.

Sir Peter told us that he had been used for some strange experiments involving a mystical pattern of pressure points he had been cleansed of the dreadful taint which infects all of us who live in the Metropolis.  Following an examination by Dr Verne he assured us that this was indeed true.  We deduced that this might also have something to do with another case of disappearances and decided to investigate further.  I thought at this point it was time to avail myself of the wine cellar and other comforts that this very fine whore house had to offer...
