After her death, she left a clue for Sylvia Salk to give to us. The Image was found to contain a hidden image, which reads:

Search for the sign 19th September LOCATION: Imperial College Beit Quadrangle All I have is the beginning of this trail. It is of no use to me now. I do not know much. I do not have much time. There will be keywords. You will be able to(?) put them to- gether to make up the address of a website. This is all I know. I cannot follow where this trail leads. You must follow for me.

Codenames "V", "Q", "K" and "C", were hired to do the Theft. They are tied to the deaths of Fran Mendling, Bernardo Holyoke, Pietro Salk, Monica Grand, Isaac Cymbalisty, Anna Heath --- but someone else got to The Cube first. Who? And Why? "We never held it, It was already gone."
