The stolen object and the criminal are random, so what follows is a sample play through.
It is the weekend at Mallory Manor. A collection of gold coins has vanished.

So now you have interviewed all twelve residents. Time to make your arrest. Remember, nobody
suspects the real thief.
To recap:
Who Where Who with Who (s)he suspects
---------------------------------------------------------
Butler Front bedroom Model Gardener
Duchess Back bedroom Nobody Brigadier
Brigadier Laundry Nanny Gardener
Gardener Stables Nobody Duchess
Writer Garage Nobody Model
Actress Billiard Room Nobody Butler
Architect Hall Nobody Writer
Cook Library Nobody Duchess
Model Front bedroom Butler Nobody
Nanny Laundry Brigadier Model
Maid Nursery Nobody Writer
Chauffeur Cloakroom Nobody Cook
Butler is suspected by Actress
Duchess is suspected by Gardener and Cook
Brigadier is suspected by Duchess
Gardener is suspected by Butler and Brigadier
Writer is suspected by Architect and Maid
Cook is suspected by Chauffeur
Model is suspected by Writer and Nanny
So five are not suspected:
Actress, Architect, Nanny, Maid, Chauffeur.
Nanny was with the Brigadier, though, so she has an alibi.
Four suspects still, but you do get four chances before being sacked from the police force.
Given that the Chauffeur was in the cloakroom by himself, where the gold coins were found, could it
be him? Arrest the Chauffeur. Yes!
