This achievement is obtainable during the 2nd ad vice story case called "The Set Up" (it is rather far into the game, I believe the case is the 2nd one on the 3rd disc). You will have an investigation scene with Candy Edwards and immediately after that your fellow detective will suggest you follow her. The next day you will begin on a park bench holding a newspaper and that is where this achievement begins.
If you get caught by Candy and start halfway through you WILL NOT GET THE ACHIEVEMENT. You need to quit back to the main menu (do not go to restart) and load up the save again. This should put you back into the room with Candy where you question her. Go through it again and then start back at the park bench.
Let Candy walk by and get some distance between her and you and then proceed to follow her. From this point on you cannot press RB (to go into cover) or A (to go incognito). Simply follow her for the next 5-6 minutes and you will get the achievement after your fellow detective pulls up with his car in a cutscene.
However, Candy Edwards does have eyes like a hawk so I have some tips and a video to help out.
1. Always look for cover that is taller than you. A good example of this is the side of buildings or a tall wall. Chest high walls will get you caught because your supposed to use them in cover to hide (but you can't do that). It is okay to stand near a wall and use that to prevent a line of sight between her and you.
2. Press B to have the camera focus directly on Candy if you lose her. This helps when your moving from wall to wall. However, when your standing near a wall I found it is better to use the right stick to adjust the camera. Pressing B will try to look directly at her, which may make you stare at a wall and lose sight of her.
3.Wait till the red icon starts to flash before moving. Cole will remark with audio cues such as the trail is slipping and he is slacking off. If you get too far behind you can always press RT to run and catch up some ground.
4. Press RT to run from wall to wall quickly. Don't wanna get caught while moving.
With all of these tips this achievement should be a breeze. Good luck!
