Mystery Woman Sleuth
It's April Fifteenth. Tax Day. And while this is not,
traditionally, a source of merriment for any citizen, K-I-L-
L TV adds a new twist to Ben Franklin's axiom about "death
and taxes" by telling the humorously suspenseful tale of
news director, Leslie Lloyd. Fateful timing finds Leslie
foraging around for a tape in the television station
control room when she notices something is off besides the
lights; station manager Lincoln Delaware Bradley III is
dead. Unfortunately, our alliterative heroine was known to
disagree with the head honcho publicly, loudly and
frequently. The fact that Leslie and Lincoln had one
humdinger of an argument a mere day's worth of hours
before
Lincoln's death doesn't escape anyone's attention, least
of
all the police. As if that isn't enough, Leslie's husband,
that rat-bastard Bob, is leaving her, her income taxes
haven't been filed, and she's in desperate need of an
Alcoholics Anonymous meeting or ten. An unexpected
diversion in the form of a love connection with policeman,
Jared Stanford, provides a welcome breather, even as a
veritable Lombard Street of plot twists threaten to send
her careening into a metaphorical wall representing her
future. The song title chapter headings set the tone for
the intrigue as we get a closer look at Leslie's life,
friends and struggle to stay on top in the uncompromising
world of broadcast journalism, as her story plays non-stop
on every station, including K-I-L-L TV.
