The Testament of Sherlock Holmes Hints
How can I find out how Farley's visitor got away unseen?
1 of 6: After you finish filling out the deduction board, Holmes will say to take another look at it to see where Farley had no logical reason to be.
2 of 6: Check out the six spots on the board where you made conclusion choices. Which one doesn't seem to fit in with the whole "rushing around because he saw Holmes coming" idea?
3 of 6: What about the book that was dropped onto the floor? Why would Farley be messing around at the bookshelf at a time like that?
4 of 6: Click on the book (number 5) on the deduction board to get Holmes to agree, then go over to the bookshelf that the book fell off of.
5 of 6: Click on the shelf's hand icon to remove some more books, then click on the hidden control box to get a close-up of its puzzle screen.
