below quest spoilers for those who havent done the quest

so i am all the way up to where the grave digger suspects 4 ppl.. so i go to talk to the healer and healer apprentice they dont have any more dialog.. i go to jakes wife and i she dont have much to say.. so needless to say evylen the apprentice is not leaving so i can loot her pouch.. is my questline bugged out? i dont know how to advance.. can anyone help.. thanks...

I thought the same at that point. I wasn't happy with my solution, as it used metagame information, but I just broke into Evelyn's house. That advanced the quest once more, although there's probably a better way to do it.

i thought of breaking in.. it would take me a half hour to knock that door down:/ and many broken weaps

If you have a pyro mage use a low level fire spell, such as scorch (IIRC). It does take some time, but you can get in. You could also use a basic staff attack, which would take even longer but doesn't incur repair penalties.

yea thanks for assistance im using my pyro skills hehe.. also i think i kno how i bugged it out.. when i talked to grave digger i entered the meta game paper scissor rock and won so he gave me the info about the 4 suspects without looting his journal.. i think that bugged it by not getting his journal for the info..

That's how I ended up in that scenario as well, as I intended my main character to be a high charm paladin. She had a +7 advantage over the mortician, so he didn't stand a chance.

Just think i figured it out mate.. online guides are wrong.. after u find about about the 4 suspects u need to go to jakes wifes shop.. before confronting her u need to get her perfect murder book in her room and down cellar get the bloody knife and confront her w those to transfer the quest to apprentice healer

edit yep that did it.. she's no longer in healer shop eventhough it dont matter for me i broke her door down earlier lol.. ahh well off to find hidden place in a cave i guess. im guessing its door near barracks. just walked out em and lvl5 zombies . dunno how im suppost to kill em @ lvl 2/3 haha

As far as I know without forcing advance in quest(breaking doors) there are 2 ways to do this. First one involves perk pet pal :

and without the perk pet pal :
