You need to find all 50 Letter Scraps around the map.
Map of Letters :
After gathering every Scrap, Franklin will be led to the home of Peter Dreyfuss. After confronting Dreyfus, Franklin is given the option of giving chase or letting him go. Choosing to pursue and assassinate him completes the mission A Startlet in Vinewood and the A Mystery, Solved Achievement.

There are 50 hidden Letter Scraps scattered all over San Andreas and they can be picked up with any character at any time during the game. These letters are small, glowing pieces of paper that were left behind by a serial killer in San Andreas. Like the space ship parts, some of these scraps can only be reached with a helicopter.
After finding all 50 scraps, proceed to the newly discovered green question mark icon in Rockford Hills while playing as Franklin. There, you will meet Leonora Johnson's killer, Peter Dreyfuss. After a short cutscene, it is up to you in deciding Dreyfuss's fate. Regardless of what you do to the man, the achievement will unlock after your decision is made.
It is recommended to work on both set of collectibles after you have purchased the Downtown Cab Company as Franklin. Once you own the company, taxi rides will be free. If you are following the videos, you can just set a waypoint to the next collectible and fast travel to your destination through the taxi cab. Make sure to whistle when you get out of the cab so it stays there while you grab the collectible. Credit goes to WalterWhite for this brilliant idea.
There are 50 locations of letters in the map. Once you find them all you will unlock the A Mystery Solved Trophy / Achievement. Just look carefully the map and find them all easily.
There you will meet a character and the Strangers & Freaks mission "A Starlet In Vinewood" will begin. Simply chase and kill him in order to complete the Strangers mission, after which this trophy will pop.
The Letter Scraps are small, glowing pieces of paper. Just like with the Spaceship Parts some of them can only be reached with a helicopter. If you are having trouble locating some of the Scraps, you can use Chop (as Franklin) to locate them for you. Stand next to him and press , from the list of options choose to take him for a walk with . When you are walking, press to send him out to find "pick ups" and if there is a collectible nearby he will run off and stand next to it. Follow the bone icon on the mini-map and the collectible will be there.
On extremely rare occasions a Letter Scrap may not be where it should be. If this occurs, switch characters then back again and it should be there.
For the location of all the Letter Scraps please see the video below or the 100% Completion Guide & Checklist for a map showing the locations of all Letter Scraps, plus text descriptions with accompanying screenshots.

Video guide to collecting scraps.
1. You can, like me, park the helicopter on the road (well, or block the road in any other way) so that the car cannot leave.
2. You can shoot out the wheels of the desired car.
3. You can stick explosives on the desired car with Velcro and detonate it at the right moment.
Personally, I didn’t have any problems with the trophy with the latest patch; it fell out like a sweetheart.
