Sequel to Armed and Outrageous:
This is a bit over six sentences, but I think you get the idea. In this scene Agnes Barton and Eleanor Mason are where else, but the scene of a crime.
"I'm Agnes Baron PI and this is my assistant, Watsin here." I thumbed in El's direction.
El's eyes narrowed. "That's fine, Watsin is way smarter than Sherlock Holmes ever was."
"Are you Miss Marple?" a woman dressed in a maid uniform asked me inquisitively.
I smoothed my hair back. "I fancy myself more of a Jessica Fletcher."
"She's such a know-it-all Aggie, you don't want to be her." Eleanor laughed.
"I'm certainly not trying to be Miss Marple or any other fictional character. I'm the real deal." I made an elegant stance like I was posing for a magazine. "I have never even read an Agatha Christie book before." I insisted.

Thanks everyone! I had to mention Miss Marple since everyone keeps thinking I based Agnes on her, which I didn't. LOL
