HI,I'm at HOLMES DESK left of door,when I PICK UP THE Redbook map,it fails to appear in inventory.AND IS needed to show CITY of LONDON PLACES. SEEMS odd. ''willie'

Willie, I added the name of the game to your subject.

Check the inventory and see if you can scroll through it to find the Red Book. If it is still not there try picking it up again from the desk.

Willie, try to right click on the red book and see if that brings up the map.

'WISH THERE WAS SOMETHING IN INVENTOTY,TO Pick up, BUT THE 'cupboard' is BARE'also have clicked on the RED BOOK, Quite often, only 'BARNES',AND 221 BAKER ST APPEAR.P.S. SO FAR 'LUPIN' IS WINNING.

Willie, please don't use all caps, it is very hard to read and in internet lingo it means you are shouting at us.

Is that desk on the opposite side of the room from the fireplace? I'm wondering if you have the right desk or the right red book.
Kay

Watson shouts, I've found it HOLMES,meaning the map, or 'RED Book' and the cover says 'MAP OF LONDEN'. HOLMES says show me where Trafalger SQUARE IS.But it does not show up in the inventory.

This is what MaG says in her walkthrough............. Right click to bring up the gameplay menu. Select the map and then select the map of London on the left.

Select the center square area and click to see the map of that area. Click on Trafalgar Square at bottom left of the map.

I've just played this bit & had trouble finding the map to start with! When you bring up the Baker St map - at the top are two title bars - one should say map of London - you just need to click on that!

'Thank YOU CHRISSIE, for being so descriptive and helpful. Now to look at and study the paintings. 'WILLIE DAY'
