Help with a case

I am doing the featured mystery, The Clutch of the Green Specter, and I'm certain I know who the perpetrator is, but the problem is he isn't on my suspects list yet. What's worse is all my suspects and business people are clammed up. What do I do?

You can guess. Featured mysteries if you accuse wrongly will not count as a false. You can play the case again.

I can't remember the clutch of the green spector anymore myself, except that it was long.

Yes, I did that. Geussed, I mean. Not at fist. I accused the wrong person for the first time yesterday. Thank god it was a featured mystery. The problem is, I can't get the suspect on my list. I'm very certain who it is, but by the time I get to the pint where this suspect is starting to get mentioned I've used up my sweet talks and rule bendings. I quit the case a few minutes ago and decided to do it again after my experience and hopefully even my number of skills I possessed has gone up.

Sometimes, if you talk to the 'townies', ask them if they have heard anything about the case, will also help you to get a suspect onto your list when all of your other suspects won't help out. Something else to keep in mind: don't take on more than you can chew for a while on your cases. Make sure that when you get your skill points, you use them carefully. Hair analysis, thread analysis, research, interrogation, rule bending are the best to start with.

With Features, often returning to people you thought you'd already spoken to will open up new questions. And research can do the same.
