Solving a crime is not as quick and easy as those few lines we summarized to you. Real detective work takes so much more. Instead of making a wild guess and arriving at a wrong conclusion, you have to make a series of good guesses which lead to a conclusion.

Actually, there is something very scientific about detective work when you take it above and beyond the level of guess work.

To be a real sleuth a la Sherlock Holmes, you have to garb yourself in an authentic-looking Sherlock Holmes costume.
