You know the little guard post that you can walk around, that has a locked glass door and long slit windows? Well I'm stuck inside. I climbed in but I can't climb out. The door just rattles. Is there a way out of there?

Question 2... There is a cabinet under the outside library porch, is that supposed to be opened from the inside?
Question 3...Up in the rafters of Robert's house, where the secret room switch is, there is a small crawl space that's blocked by the cabinet in his bedroom. I can't find any way to move that. And what is the purpose for It?
Question 4...Where is the Book of Shadows? I cannot find any reference about its whereabouts: DONE

HELP anyone

I'm still waiting for a bit of help. I had to leave this unfinished because I just can't figure out any of these.

I enjoyed exploring an expanded South Quarter from Deadly Shadows, but I did not like the mandatory secrets in this mission. How was I supposed to know I have to do crate-stacking to reach a secret switch which itself is very hard to see? Even after I read fortuni's walkthrough, I had trouble getting the crates into the right position before I could reach it.

Stats:
* Expert difficulty
* 84 minutes
* 96% loot
* 4 hints needed
Elements I liked:
* Visually, there is no clash between South Quarter map elements from the original campaign and parts that were added by Savar.
* Moody ambience music was added that blends well Eric Brosius’ music.
* The number of City Watch in the streets is increased. This makes the area of South Quarter more challenging than it was in the original campaign.
* The map is packed with secrets and interesting objects for players to discover.
Elements that could be improved:
* Very difficult mandatory secrets will leave many players stumped and requiring assistance.
* The mission briefing is convoluted and contains many grammatical errors. It is intended as a continuation of the story of Deadly Shadows, but it ignores the ending where the Keepers are gone and Garrett becomes the new first Keeper. Here, the Keepers somehow still exist and Garrett is still a thief.
* Journals and notes in the mission also contain numerous grammatical and spelling errors.
* There appears to be something wrong with the water texture in the South Quarter Fountain.
* In a room of the morgue where you can activate a switch to blast a corpse with gas, there is a line on the ceiling where the textures don't line up.
* After you get the climbing gloves, you can climb out of bounds in many places. There are also objects on the rooftops you can't quite get to, like a Pagan symbol on a wall or a gas arrow, possibly leftovers from previous versions of the mission.
* In the pub, I could get over the counter, but mantling back over the counter was very difficult.
* I could get into Lady Elisabeth's place via a window in the north but could not squeeze out through the same window again.
* It is impossible to leave Veles' room without taking damage.
* If you finish the mission, you are loaded into the original version of South Quarter, which felt jarring to me.
Hints needed:
* Did not find the secret room in Robert's house.
* Missed Veles' room.
* Missed the note in the window of Pavelock Prison.
* Missed the Keeper Enforcers' hideout.

It's in a hidden room (Veles), search Gloomy lane carefully.
