Simple FMs with low tension

Happy New Year Mr. Lambert
Returning A Favor (Thief Gold FM)
A Bank Job
The Skull of St. Yora

I thought I'd have more suggestions than that, but it's something. I tend to favor the complicated 6 hour long FMs. I should point out that the first two on my list both have scripted events where a required NPC won't enter the building until you've found everything you need up until that point, which is annoying. Actually now that I think about it, Mr. Lambert has some really well hidden stuff in it.

All For A Nights Sleep by Morrgan is short and sweet, even the most thorough playthrough should clock in at under an hour.

Oh, I'd also recommend "The Crypt of St. Lucian" - it's a very well done, small mission with a little bit of everything.

Thank you everyone for the suggestions! Those might just keep me busy for a while. Keep 'em coming!

As said in the first post, please don't post horror FMs. They require a whole lot of concentration and time for me to play them. I know I put some horror FMs in the first post. I just put them to give some reference which FMs and authors I liked.

And I actually made an error in the first post. I have tried Lord Ashton series, not Night Falcon.

Ok, then you will probably like the first two missions of Night Falcon, but the third is very much a horror/vampire fest.

EDIT: I do not know if you have played T2X yet. Even though the campaign as a whole has lots of angst/tension/horror, if you can get through the first mission (sort of a prologue but with some tense gameplay), the following two missions should fit the bill. The Trials that Shape Us is a gorgeous and light-hearted museum mission and While the City Sleeps is a relaxed and fun city mission.
