Post Mortem Hints
NOTE: Time-Sensitive Tasks
1 of 3: There are several pieces of evidence that you must gather either after solving the book cipher puzzle or *immediately* after you solve it. Events that follow after solving one or two puzzles past that point will keep you from retrieving them. (There are other important pieces of evidence in the game, but these can be collected any time prior to the final sequence.)
2 of 3: In particular, make sure you've completely searched De Allepin's house before you proceed too far in your investigation. Read ahead if you want to know what these objects are, or at least save your game at the appropriate time to make sure you can reload a saved game if you need to.
