The Lost Files Of Sherlock Holmes - The Case Of The Rose Tattoo Walkthrough: ------------ NOTE: There is a lot of flexibility in this game, allowing you to go to various sundry locations in haphazard order. In fact, the order that I went through the game when writing the walkthru is not the order in which I played the first time - hindsight (or notes) is such a wonderful thing.

I suspected a compromising picture was missing from Lawton's album, but had assumed it was something that would make Lady Cordelia break off the engagement. Yet, when Holmes confronts Major Mysteray he refers to the picture explicitly. Overall, though - what fun! This walkthru is O 1996 by Dave Timoney. All rights reserved.
