Letter from Moriarty

 Holmes received a hand delivered note which he studied for a short time before passing to Watson.
   "It's some of sort of code!!!" exclaimed Watson. " What does it mean and who is it from ?"
   Holmes  grabbed his hat and coat. " It's from Moriarty, Watson. Hurry, we must stop him!! " 

The message read : J XJMM SPC UIF CBOL PG FOHMBOE UPOJHIU. 
                                              NPSJBSUZ.

Holmes had obviously deciphered the message. CAN YOU?? 
This is one of my favorite puzzle (by tom bullimore )

    I will rob the Bank of England tonight. Moriarty.
    As if he would use such a simple cipher.

    Check out my new novel "The Murder of Sherlock Holmes." Kirkus Reviews calls it “…the kind of narrative Gordian knot that Holmes aficionados will relish. Overall, it’s a fun, fine setup for a new series pairing Watson with a plucky young partner.”

      Simple substitution. The most common letter used in the English alphabet is E, and then based on that identify the others.
