Is This the Work of the British Irregulars?





(Artwork by Tereza Vlčková.)

Over the past year, over 200 anonymous letters have been sent to the police in the small British town of Highbridge. The notes, which are always typed on plain white paper, have given authorities enough information to catch drug dealers, tax dodgers, and a wide assortment of evil-doers.

Some people suggest that the mysterious sleuth may be a retired policeman or crime novel aficionado. Heh heh. We'll just let them believe that . . . for now.

The british irregulars: more than the mystery of thier work, the genius of their secrety, the wonder of who they really are, and the curiosity of the things we'll never know.

So, Death Note aficionados wondering how the police started taking cues from some random distorted voice on the television? THIS IS HOW IT STARTED. :D
