23d "In elevator with missing female" (3) L?T - I'm assuming it's LIFT minus the F but can LIT mean IN?

Any help much appreciated

Yes, a cigarette is "in" when lit.

Apparently it can, in the meaning of 'drunk'

Just had a look at thesaurus synonyms of lit

Chambers Dictionary has "alight" under "in".
