    Summary

    Hannibal smells her first. Nearly buried beneath the pungency of the cheap colognes mounted on a nearby display case is something totally incongruous: the sticky-sweet dough scent of the cinnamon pretzels sold down on the mall’s first level. He parts the suits with both hands, hangers squeaking on the bar, and looks down at the young girl squatting on the floor in the middle of the rack.

     

    Or, Will loses his daughter at the mall. Hannibal returns her to him.

    Summary

    Todd Anderson is a bestselling crime novelist. After publishing his third novel, he’s grown tired of writing murder mysteries. With the encouragement of his editor, he decides that his next novel will have mysteries of a different sort: medical mysteries. Trouble is, he doesn’t know anything about medicine.

    Dr. Neil Perry is an oncologist who, quite frankly, is bored with monotonous day-to-day work. Not even his favorite crime novels can keep his boredom at bay. So when his boss tells him that a famous novelist is going to be shadowing his work for research, he’s happy to help out!

    Or; to research his new novel, Todd shadows Neil's work. What could go wrong?

    Summary

    If everything that can happen happens [has to end well / has to end badly / has to end every way it can] you can't really do the wrong thing.

     

    “I’m sorry the world you made for us didn’t – couldn’t happen.” She feels careful as she’s saying it, tiptoeing through the ruins of the life that could’ve been. She doesn’t look at Will. Hannibal’s knife glares up at her for a moment, and the smell of blood hangs heavy in the air. “But we can make a new one. Put the teacup back together.”

    or: Abigail does the right thing.

    Summary

    Things were easier when she was little. Five-year-olds going into their parents’ room crying about a storm and asking to sleep in their bed is cute. Nineteen-year-olds doing it isn’t even acceptable.
     

    Abigail has a fear of storms, and one night a particularly harsh one crops up at her new home.
