Here's mine from The Silk Stocking Murders by Anthony Berkeley:

It wouldn't be difficult after that, I imagine, to remove one of her stockings; and then he could proceed with his preparations at leisure, screwing the hook in the door, arranging a chair to stand her on, and all the rest of it.

    Ooh, I'm wondering what he's up to...nothing good, I'm sure.

    What is he going to do to her? Looks like he is not dealing with a live person anymore (given the title and the snippet).. Darn scary!

    Here is my 56

    It didn't seem to matter what sentence I picked...it all sounded scary and down-right murderous. I tried to go with the most intriguing without telling too much.

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
