Events of CC Fanon
In An Author's Pen, Rita is flagged as a suspect after the many fan letters she sent to the victim were discovered at the crime scene. The detectives were forced to speak to her a second time after they discovered she had sent a letter to the victim, threatening to ruin him if he were to not finish the Serious Spies novel series. Rita was found to be innocent.

During the Additional Investigation, Rita was questioned by the detectives after receiving numerous complaints from her neighbours. After solving the woman's problem, the detectives are still forced to fine her for disrupting the peace.
