Session 7 - 9th March 2025

In-game date: 10th November 1934

Notes by: Michael

1: Breakfast The gang breaks down how they are going to, the group talks about splitting up first, Michael and Robert making their way over to the lockbox that Henslow held in his name. However, a split was talked about on how it was going to happen. Due to the need to talk with the Holland family and invite them over for dinner. So the choice was made to bring the rest of the group along, with Mikhail going alone to Holland and the police station.

2: LAPD & Holland

Mikhail makes there way to the police station as they go to meet up with their contact in the station. Asking to check the license plate number from the previous session. Coming back after a while they alert Mikhail that the license had been from a private investigator. That being Mr Jack Pizner. His office also not being too far away from the Police office.

Heading to the office of Mr Holland Mikhail found themselves in a smaller office space. A secretary welcomed them in. Letting Mikhail in as a potential Client. Posing as a developer Mikhail explains the need for a permanent resident. Though the weather was a problem they decided to ignore it. Digging a grave for themselves they are offered a portfolio though found themselves unable to really find any way to maneuver into bringing them to a dinner. Though they would refuse

3: Lockbox warehouse in Long Beach.

With the rest of the group going to the warehouse they make their way to the FDIC warehouse. Its perimeter is surrounded by a fence and gate. Explaining that they were here for a lockbox. Entering they give a worker their ID and lead Robert out to the lockbox, as they move past the rest of the group. Leading them to a different area. Showing off a massive amount of crates. That holds all the lockboxes. Finding an envelope and accounting book in the lockbox they pass the accounting book to the accountant as Robert read the pictures and photographs. Finding it all to be about wild sex. Soon being shooed off to leave the group makes it way out and towards the car. They soon head home with Robert examining the photos as best they can. Trying to find what they recognize. Finding they recognize Edgar Job and Richard Spent.

Michael looked over the Accounting books, and he found them to be handwritten and incomplete, leaving them to suspect illegal dealings.

4: Lunch. Talking about what happened they go into the meeting with the LAPD and the private investigator, along with arranging a meeting with Mr Holland. Soon turning to the lockbox they show off the pictures and find a familiar figure that seemed a constant through the pictures. Along with that, the accounting book showed signs of fraud and illegal dealings. Soon they found a postcard in them with the name bookwold. Turning to a focus on breaking into groups for continued investigation. Michael and Mikhail stay back to decode. William to develop his photos and Nolan, Ralph, and Robert went to talk with Yolanda.

5: Yolanda talk.

Heading out to meet with Yolanda, they headed out to their place of residence. A nicer house typical of the richer groups of Los Angeles. Getting a meeting with Yolanda as they talked with her employer they sat down for a meeting and started to talk about Richard her brother with them. Yolanda would talk about her brother in a kinder manner. Though she seemed to go quiet about the end of him. Saying that others came to speak with her but it didn’t seem to do much for her. She also explained that she would manage his money and that near the end it got harder to do so and he would be harder to talk with in general. He would be gloomy about not going to the parties and that he would be more dramatic about them. Causing a risk for no reason. Reacting hostile at the end of it all. In a calmer point, they would say to care for their sisters. Ralph talks about how he wished he had one. However, it didn’t pan out the best. Talking about there brother's death it was talked about in the papers and tabloids. Though explicit in the tabloids. But beforehand the police came by and asked if Rick was taking drugs. And asked further questions but she wasn’t certain. Mostly about the parties and if she knew Echavarria's. Though this was before the fire at the barn and what happened. However, with one last question, Hass asked if Yolanda believed in ghosts and they said no. Rather than not seeing that and seeing Echavarria as a charlatan.

6: Planning.

After coming back from Yolanda the next step of planning is put in place. First Robert and Mikhail will contact the private investigator and get to understand what they could from them. Hoping to put a meeting in place to talk with them and also get close. After setting a meeting Ralph was asked by Mikhail to ask about Cult things and stuff that was shown by the photographs that William had taken of that were the symbols put onto the stones from the farm area. Though it would take some time to get the things they need and study.

7: Breakfast. At breakfast, they learn that the book is a ledger of some liquid of dealings. The cost is three dollars and is distributed and paid through a couple of companies. Along with the learning of codenames of Sleek, Moses, and Umbrella. Ranging from August 22 to July 24. This was all we could find. Along with that the time to go visit houses are organized with Robert, Mikhail, and Nolan. Michael going to find something in the library and William going to find more information on Bookwold.

8: split up

Michael went to the library and didn’t find anything. Along with William not finding much on Bookwold as well. Then Robert and Mikhail along with Nolan moved to go visit a house and decided to go see their houses. Deciding to describe Echavarria's house and its architect hoping to see any houses like that.Going to Echavarria's old home to showcase what they were. They found themselves talking about the house's old owners and learned that some of the furniture went to a place called the Magnificent Villa Auctions. Along with learning of this Villa, William had found the address of Mr Bookwold, an active accountant.
