Lewd woman upset about evidence of debts (9)
I believe the answer is:
salacious
'lewd' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'woman upset about evidence of debts' is the wordplay.
'woman' becomes 'Sal' (short for Sally).
'upset about' becomes 'ac' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'evidence of debts' becomes 'ious' (I Owe Yous, promises to pay debts).
'sal'+'ac'+'ious'='SALACIOUS'
(Other definitions for salacious that I've seen before include "Risque" , "Prurient, bawdy" , "Arousing lustful feelings" , "Lewd" , "Steamy" .)
