A girl had to do what a girl had to do and it looked as if this girl__ immediate future included chicken Caesar salad, chocolate cake, and Cary Grant.

If looks could kill, she__ be a dead woman.

Murder was apparently too common-place in the big city to attract much notice. Poor Luther, thought Lucy, as she headed back to the hotel. Even in death he was only a big fish in a small pond.

It__ a small-town rule: Never speak ill of the dead until the estate has paid the outstanding bills.

She was halfway through the revolving door when the thought hit her; she was the one who had seen Junior and Luther fighting before the banquet. She was the one had told Detective Sullivan. Overcome with guilt, she grabbed Ted__ arm and faced him. __t__ because of me,_ she said. __unior was arrested because of me!

Lucy had no complaints about her dinner. Anything was fine with her as long as she didn__ have to cook it.
