Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper Hints
What "incongruous detail" is Holmes wanting me to point out?
1 of 5: He said that we were able to establish it regarding the Hanbury Street murder. What's similar here?
2 of 5: Not the cuts on the throat. It's something that seemingly has little or nothing to do with the murders.
3 of 5: He's referring to the personal items found next to each victim.
4 of 5: In this case, that item is the bag of pastilles.
5 of 5: Click on the chalk outline's hotspot to get a close-up, then pick up the magnifying glass and click on the bag of pastilles.
