Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened Hints
How can I find the raccoon's nest?
1 of 10: The simplest way would be to watch him as he goes to it.
2 of 10: He'll probably only do that once he has some new prize to store there.
3 of 10: If you check your "Fauna and Flora of Louisiana, page 54" document, you'll see that raccoons are carrion-eaters.
4 of 10: So go find some dead meat to tempt the raccoon with.
5 of 10: Go check the house's kitchen. If there's still any meat lying around there, it's bound to be rancid and carrion-like by now.
6 of 10: Find the kitchen counter with all the flies buzzing around it.
7 of 10: The ham that's been left out for days is what's attracting the flies, so click on it to take a slice.
8 of 10: Go back outside and look carefully on the ground near the back porch steps where you saw the raccoon earlier.
9 of 10: You'll see a set of interactive paw prints on the ground.
10 of 10: Use the ham slice on the prints to get a cut-scene in which you learn where the raccoon's nest is.
