In "Immortal in Death", Eve's 'bachelor party' is held at the "Down and Dirty" because, according to Mavis, 'bachelor parties' need to be in a place that is 'nasty'. Unfortunately, someone at the "Down and Dirty" that night is nasty and tries to kill Eve during the party.

Answer: Annie

Charles, whose nickname for Eve is 'Lieutenant Sugar' is a friend of the initial victim in "Naked in Death". In "Seduction in Death" he serves as an expert civilian consultant, and in "Strangers in Death" he has a client who becomes a suspect.

On a non-professional level, Charles becomes a good friend of both Eve and Roarke, and in "Promises in Death" they serve as best man and maid of honor at his wedding, which is held at Roarke's mansion on Central Park West.

Eve and Webster's one night stand meant more to Webster than Eve, who has never had a lasting relationship before Roarke. Webster first appears in "Conspiracy in Death", but it is not until "Judgement in Death" that Eve breaks up a fight between Webster and Roarke. However, Roarke does help Baxter 'slip' into his fist in "Conspiracy in Death".
