- Morder scene is the beginning. Start with the "earthquake". Work the story and the murder and the event
- Plot Twist in the End is important
- Make sure the murderer isn't the only bad guy
- Detective is an outsider and observer of this weird world.
- Story Should move very fast
- Avoid stereotypes - memorable villain with unique details
- Map your darkest moments
- Plot cues, twists, and red herrings are important
