[2225] first chapter of a Douglas Adams-esque mansion murder mystery

Hi ya'll,

So I've recently published a free novella (20K-ish), but before I go giving it any marketing pushes, I thought it might be a good idea to get the first chapter on here, just to make sure that the initial chapter is as polished as it can be.

The novella is called "The Heist & Crimes of Shackleton Manor". The main questions/areas of interest I have are as follows, however to be honest, any feedback of any kind is welcome.

1. The first page – do the initial character intros grab you?
2. The last page – does the inciting incident entice you to read on?
3. Does the relationship between the two leads intrigue you?
4. Does the banter land, specifically, is there any banter that doesn't land?
5. Is there any proofing I've missed (please God say no).

The link to the first chapter is just here.

My critique is 2218.

Cheers!
