On a warm August afternoon in 1966, a boy climbing a large hill outside Rio de Janeiro discovered a scene that would puzzle investigators for decades: two men lying side by side in neat suits, raincoats folded over their clothes, and strange handmade lead masks covering their eyes. Around them sat a small, orderly cluster of belongings  a water bottle, simple pills, tools, cash, and a notebook containing a cryptic set of instructions: “Be at the designated place at 4:30pm.
