Overview

JUST A CORPSE AT TWILIGHT: It's a simple assignment. Jim Bennett needs to get an okay for a post-mortem autopsy to confirm that Frank Osborn really died from a heart attack, and not the silicosis that he suffered from and that was covered by his insurance. However, the local mortician won't okay it. And the county coroner won't allow it. And the sheriff is definitely against it. That leaves Lucy, the man's widow. Even though it means a nice payout to her, she isn't excited about having her husband's body exhumed either. Still, she reluctantly agrees. Then she is accidentally shot while standing at her kitchen window. And the next bullet is aimed at Bennett. CATCH A KILLER: ""People and trouble ... How would we make a living without people and trouble?"" chides Jim Bennett to his secretary Sandy. His latest job involves trying to talk a young lady to return home before her mother's death. Francine had a falling out with her mother over a brash musician whom she had temporarily run away with. But now all her mother wants is to see her daughter one more time. If Fran is willing to come back home, her wealthy mother will bequeath her fortune to her, with a hefty commission for Bennett. But Fran won't budge. In fact, her former fling is back with his jazz band, and it looks like Fran is planning to run away with him again. Her bags are packed, she's said her goodbyes... and then murder enters the scene.
