1 of 6: There are several items that you need to take before the game will let you leave the study.
2 of 6: Besides the chess piece letter opener that's essential for your escape, the roll-top desk also has a small musical jewel box you can take. (It's over near the right side of the desk close-up screen.)
3 of 6: There's also more to the desk's drawer than just the book inside of it.
4 of 6: Right-click on the drawer to find William's secret diary of his recent doings. It will make things a little clearer.
