Very well conceived situation and plot. Nicely creepy opening, an interesting and unusual mystery, then a reversal in the middle that will stretch the PCs out of their comfort zone and made us as players, when I played this adventure, have to think and adjust. Then we gradually solved the mystery, which has a vividly creepy twist, and faced the big bad, a custom monster, in a combat that featured several unusual attacks and strategies. A great one-shot--engaging hook, provocative twist, flexible on time (a helpful, knowledgable NPC helped point our party toward the solution, so that we could finish in time), and a satsifying climactic combat and story resolution. I will absolutely check out any other adventures by this author.
