Hi, I am Inspector Cachet and I am here to help you with your detective skills.

This lesson is about doing fieldwork, a very important skill for a detective. Of course, in these modern times, some fieldwork might be done online.

The puzzle

While trying to solve this case, I found a mystery photo album at the Rome Clock Tower. I added the coordinates of the location where I found it as a reference point. I attached the images to this page. Each image seemed to mark whether it was taken in the morning or the afternoon. Hopefully, the photos will help you solve this case.

01 = Morning
02 = Morning
03 = Afternoon
04 = Morning
05 = Afternoon
06 = Morning
07 = Morning
08 = Morning
09 = Afternoon
10 = Morning


Check your solution

 

Important detail: Once you find the cache, you are looking for the information to open the container. The required information is not on this page and can only be gained once you find the cache. More fieldwork may be required to open the container. Once opened, you may find some more useful information inside the logbook.
