This is the first file found today and when decrypted with the kilo method,

between subtle shading and the absence of light lies the nuance of iqlusion.

the answer is the invitation.

the message is a quotation from the famous Kryptos and was part of it's deciphered text. Go to the second page here:

I quickly took the word Kryptos and put it into the second document's pasword box to reveal this message:

To the illustrious Stroud.

Your reputation proceeds you.

I knew a man of your caliber would have no problemfinding the “hidden” key to open this invitation.

Being a former Langley “spook”, I knew you would immediately recognize the passage. After all, you probably walked past KRYTPOS a couple times a day,yes?

You may find my methods to be…eccentric. However,I must know that those I employ are resourceful.

I have recently learned of your expertise oflocating and recovering books of particular value.

I’m in need of finding the rarest book of all. One that will have no date or location. No title or author. A book that will mystify you as much as ithas me.

I was notified via email upon the opening of thisfile. I suggest we talk. Don’t worry about finding me. I’ve already found you. SW corner of Hyde Park.

1:30p tomorrow. I’ll be waiting on the green bench.

Cheers,Your New Client

This is where the trail runs cold for now, but we may pick up more soon. I will try to keep you updated as much as possible.
