Important People
- Thomas Deegan, landlord of The Coachman pub in Hammersmith, granted MI5's protection in exchange for keeping an open house and safe zone for useful assets.

Investigative Leads
- Plastic tape from a Dymo label maker, stating IM GETTING OUT. ITS GONE TOO FAR. TAKE THIS, USE IT: ITS EVIDENCE. H - from Edgar's former MI6 analyst & Balkans/E. Europe specialist "Hopkins"?
- Hillingham - abandoned and derelict mansion on the north-east side of Hampstead Heath. A search of HM Land Registry shows that the owner of the property is listed as "HM Government."
- Graz - in Austria? Capital of the southern Austrian province of Styria, while Ingolstadt is a historic university town in Bavaria, chiefly famous for hosting the foundation of the Bavarian Illuminati in 1776 and, supposedly, the experiments of Victor Frankenstein a few decades later. However, the Bavarian capital, Munich, also holds a famous tomb to a "Countess Dolingen of Graz" in its Alter Nordfriedhof cemetery. The Counts of Dolingen were apparently a minor Styrian noble family which became extinct in the later 19th century.
