Write the whole adventure before you start - too many times I've had players skip parts of the adventure and end up leaving the "written up" portion.Pick an "ending" idea first. If you have three ideas, that's three adventures. Pick one. Roll a dice if you have to. Now create a simple plot and a few clue trails. (The plot has to be simple - seriously, how many people figure out mystery novels by the end? Not too many people, and that probably includes your players. So, go simple.)I don't know if you can get your hands on Critical Locations. They have a mansion, although it's a small one. One of the Game Mechanics adventures (<a href="http://www.thegamemechanics.com" target="_blank">www.thegamemechanics.com</a>) also has a mansion in it, if I'm not mistaken.This is a good place to post those ideas. Maybe someone can offer you good advice.</blockquote>
